Powers that be wanted a live release so I called the neighbor and he tossed it in his truck to go release. In the end it didnt want to get out of the cage and when it did, it turned around and charged them It caught a .45 slug in the dome. Neighbor said it weighed about 35-40 pounds and was massive outside the tiny cage. Shoulda just shot the stupid thing while in the cage and dumped it out.
