Many wildlife control companies advertise trapping and relocation as a humane, even "green"
method of wildlife management. Homeowners often envision the removed animal
going to a wonderful new home where they can live happily ever after.
However, this is a misconception, the animals are often harmed - either during the trapping process or later after
relocation has occurred.
The Skunk Whisperer does not advocate the practice of trapping and relocation.
Studies such as this one published in The Wildlife Society Bulletin in 1998 have been conducted
to learn more about the true effects of translocation on animals and wildlife.
