UPDATE: Mink captured at community garden
UPDATE: A wild animal threatening a flock of chickens at Jessy’s Garden east of Prince Albert has now been captured.
Bonny Sanderson said the animal, a mink, was trapped Thursday afternoon. The Sandersons worked with a professional trapper to capture the animal. Unfortunately, the mink did not survive.
“We don’t want to hurt anything, or do anything, that’s not our way,” Sanderson said. “We wanted to do catch and release, that’s always a big thing with us, not to kill anything. You move it back to its own space.”
The Sandersons will now look to add to their flock now that the threat is over. Sanderson hopes there won’t be any more issues with wildlife.
