Guy's... the best way( short of a bullet) to catch a yard pig ( wood chuck) is with a blind set live trap ( I was in the buisness for over 20 years... I got sick of the phone ringing all hours of the day and night anbd gave it up))... open both doors and set it in his trial.... add a small amount of grass from the trail on the cage floor so the wire does not spook him.. bend some grass and weeds over the cage to break up the outline to make it look like a tunnel... LIGHTLY block the trail sides of the trail with small sticks and vegetation.. . you'll avoid the unwanted catches and catch the garden raider... makes sure the cage does no rock.. they are extremly skittish about unstable/unfamilure grounds.. the same tactic works well on bugs ( bunny) too.. just find a pinch point where they are entering the yard...
