If you get too close try getting it out of your clothes :lol: I've trapped and had dogs on a fair few with a couple of real big ones. The biggest weighed in at just over 8lb. Big dog mink it was that would have made you cross the street on a dark night :lol: also had a fair few break out of traps by bending the bars on big cage traps. Most effective way I found was a raft with a trap on it and some drainage pipe cut in half covering it with no bait, there too curious :lol:

Well done when the *** hole animal libaloons released a few thousand from the mink farm in Staffordshire years ago it devastated the local wildlife long may u catch n dispatch the evil creatures

True also in Warwickshire but never a mention when the conservationists whinge on about lack of water voles etc?

Worked on a trout farm for 7 years or so so I'm presuming it ate a lot of our trout :lol:

 

Had a few other big dog mink but never anything that size since

 

Hi Hendrix I thought the Mink must have eaten a lot of stocked trout :yes: , shame you didnt keep the pelt as it is a truly outstanding animal, we caught well over 2000 mink but none even half that weight, TBH im glad :lol:
