I agree with Jim, and I've said it before in this forum (and received angry
responses)..."predation" is not "murder".

Live trapping the chipmunk, and relocating it, will result in a slow death
by starvation of its young. And that is closer to murder than anything the
chipmunk did.

Sincerely,
Randy
