Wolf leg hold traps, how to properly set them.

When setting leg hold traps for wolves, trap preparation is extremely important. Take care to set aside the first layer of soil you remove. You will want to put it back last exactly like you removed it first. This gives the trap site a natural looking appearance. Imbed your drag hook and chain first in your dirt hole. Pack soil firmly around and on top of hook and chain. Set your trap on top of this. Place a piece of wax paper on top of the jaws and pan of your trap to help keep dirt out. Sift a fine layer of soil around and on top of your trap. As an option, you can place Peat Moss around and on top of your trap because it is light weight. Place the first layer of soil you removed carefully around the top of your trap and make it look undisturbed and natural. I spray skunk essence around the general trap area high up on trees so the wind can catch it. Wolves seem to be attracted to the smell and then to your trap. Works for me !
