[QUOTE="RDFF, post: 1719155, member: 39018"] Big trap pen made out of the "escape proof" 24' corral panels... set up so you can trap 'em without them realizing you're there (maybe a rope to pull a self latching gate shut... might have to set up a blind to hide out of sight in to accomplish this). Feed in the corral for a few days, without any thought of trying to catch them. Place feed so that they see you doing it, and walk away. Would be nice in these situations to have a "drop gate" that could be remotely tripped, wouldn't it? Gordon Hazard has some good thoughts on gentling wild head high critters in his book. Set a bucket of feed out so they see you do it, and walk away. Do the same every day for a week, eventually they'll not see you as a friend instead of a threat. [/QUOTE]
