Comtois has nabbed six so far for the study, all close to his home near the Rhode Island border, but in February he began setting live traps in Hartford—and in the most unlikely places, such as culverts beneath I-91 and I-84. Although he had not caught one in the city at this writing, his critter-cams have documented the species taking subterranean shortcuts to get to their hunting grounds. One hangs out near the MDC sewage treatment plant in south Hartford, less than a quarter mile east of I-91.
