Similar to Paul's story; My Dad was raising quail in the backyard in the city (in the Seventies). He wants to get a big population going on his ranch. Something keeps getting in and killing them. He sets a varmint trap. At 6:00AM one Sunday morning we hear this horrific noise. We go outside and the neighbor's foo-foo rat dog has turned out to be the culprit and is raising hell because it's foot is caught. The neigbors on three sides come outside to see what is going on (4 foot chain link fence) and he goes to release the dog. It bites him so he has to go into the workshop and get a pair of heavy welder's gloves. Of course the rat dog is making a racket during all this time. He successfully releases the dog which seems to be all right. The neighbors acted like nothing happened so we did too.
Best,
Mike
