2 coyotes and 2 grinners last night. 1 grinner from yesterday.

Congrats K!

Another shutdown at work this week so I'm on the sidelines again.

Had another dirthole worked by a fox (again) plus a cat walked past it. Another set had a cat step inside the jaws on a K9 Extreme but missed the pan. Soon...

Another pig wanting a taste of that t-bone. Added another grinner to bring total to 58 since May 1st on egg eaters.

Catch em all kbush. I got 4 sets put back out today, got a pic of a cool looking red yote that I hope to catch.

Thx. Hopefully you get that red one soon.

Well I got a red one, just not the same kind of red lol. Not many of these little guys around my area, so they are a special treat.

Cool catch there. Reds are especially rare here too. I'd have to think real hard about dispatching a Red unless I was going to take it to the taxidermist.

I like turkeys more than I like foxes, so it had to go. I will skin it and tan the hide though.

Definitely not many reds left! Greys can climb to escape the coyotes but reds can't so they don't last long unless they get real smart around them.

I've caught fewer and fewer reds every year as our coyote population increased.

Kind of interesting that with regular trapping our rabbit and quail population have increased with the deer and turkeys but the red fox haven't bounced back as well.

x2...

I did not know that about the greys. That's interesting. I rarely see a red on our place anymore. Maybe every other year I'll get 1 on camera passing through. We have a few resident greys I see regularly though. I figure if I get a fox in my trap the yotes will have it eat up before daylight. That's what they do with my coons anyways.

You have a serious coyote problem.

Yep, I have never had anything get a coon in one of my traps yet. Did have something eat a possum once and left nothing but the foot.

The only thing I've ever had eaten out of a trap was a turkey. Had one get caught one day and the next mornings check told a gruesome tell. Coyotes pulled the turkey and I followed out into the planted pines where they drug her.

The crime scene where the turkey was caught. A flat set on the inside bend of a three way intersection that was loaded with coyote tracks.



I believe in setting heavy on sign so I had 2 sets in the intersection. This fella was right across the road from the crime scene. He just looked guilty to me! Lol!

Definitely a guilty look on that one.

What is the procedure for getting a bobcat tag? Seems like you should be able to call, give sex and size measurements for tag to be mailed?

I always stop by the dcnr office , but it's close to the house for me anyway.

I just call and give my trapping license number and the date it was caught, and they mail me the tag.

One trap set, one catch. Grey fox.
