I would read ALL of the state regs on trapping first and foremost! Yep .......... Bobcat and Otter Tagging Requirement 220-2-.30 All bobcat and otter, regardless of method of harvest, are required to be tagged by a representative of the Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries Division within 14 days of harvest or may be left with a taxidermist with a completed tagging form, and the taxidermist is required to have the bobcat or otter tagged within 14 days of receipt.

I have wondered how many actually call bobcats in.

You might be able to get them in a live trap if they are living around houses and such but I have never had luck with live traps on bobcats. It's nothing to catch coons and possums in one, even had a coyote get in one and tear it to pieces but never a bobcat for me. It can be done, I know some states only allow cage traps, but I am sure it's not as productive as footholds. Good luck on it. a foothold is a live trap

In general people call cage traps live traps. I just assumed that's what he meant. I could be wrong though.

Would they let someone run legholds for a few days? Absolutely, just not discharge a firearm to dispatch the animal right there it’s really close to houses. I’m not a trapper so if you have some other method of dispatch that’s awesome.
