When I lived in the backwoods, neighbors trapped them...and everything else for their pelt. They would kill them (without getting sprayed) with a stick that had a very sharp nail on the end. Somehow got the stick in the trap slowly and gently and then stabbed them behind the ear into the skull with the pointy end.

The best way to trap a skunk for release is to use a trap made specifically for one (A no-spray type trap). We made ours out of wood..but most you buy are metal. They are not the same as the wire cage types used for other varmits. They have several versions on Amazon for about $50 each.

Some are born free. Some have freedom thrust upon them. Others simply surrender
