civit cats are much harder to trap than a regular skunk.a plain old striped skunk will step in a leghold trap laying out in the middle of a concrete parking lot,but you better have a good set to catch a civet cat.I dont think a striped skunk sees too well,thats why you see them and they will walk right past you if you stand still and never even notice you. a civit cat wont,its almost completly nocturnal,and hunts like a cat.they will climb trees and things to get birds and eggs,where a regular skunk usually wont,and where a regular skunk will kill 3 or 4 chickens in a pen,a civet cat(spotted skunk) will kill them all ,doesnt matter if there are 30 in the pen.think of a cross between a weasel and a striped skunk with 10 times as potent spray and you got a civet cat or spotted skunk.the last ones i saw around here must have been around the mid eighties, they seem to go in cycles for some reason.could have something to do with the number of owls and things around is all i can figure.since they are maybe half the size of a regular skunk owls probably get quite a few of them.most folks when i was a kid would leave their barn loft doors open for the owls to roost in their barns which helped keep skunk,civet cat, and rats numbers down.of course they would get a chicken or duck everynow and then also,but that was considered a small price to pay for the good they did.
