Now when the little raccoons gather round their campfires and tell scary stories they’ll tell the one about the old raccoon with one metal hand and the spooky sound of rattling chain.

nm I misread your post lol
Those suckers are masters at getting away. We had to start taking channel locks to the pens to tighten them down and then to remove them because they bang the traps on the legs so much they'd knock/work the hand-tightened EZ link open....that gets expensive. We probably have 5-6 hanging traps on the mantles of our three legged bandit-faced corn thieves with a story to tell..

Trapped my first raccoon but...
This thread made me laugh. Had a coon pull a dukes trap out and make off with it. Three weeks later we had a hog hunter sitting in a ladder stand when he heard this metal clanking sound off in the woods. Right before dark in came that coon to the feeder dragging that trap. The hunter figured I’d want my trap back so he arrowed him. Coon was plenty fat and hadn’t missed any meals due to his ball and chain !!
