I agree it is fading away as a whole. However lots of guys who practice QDM around here bring in coyote trappers every late winter/ealry spring. So do a lot of duck clubs for raccoons in the spring. More so in recent years than ever before. I realize thats a small sample though.
I appreciate their attempts, but there are a lot of references to studies without any links. I have a hard time imagining it's not stressful.
Which is why most places have check times to avoid too much time going by. But each critter varies...some dont struggle much at all until the trapper comes to check.
I'm sure if I had more exposure I'd have a different take
Maybe, maybe not. I have a lot of respect for guys that trap and are successful while doing it according to regulations. It's hard and requires a lot of dedication. I also will not oppose another outdoorsman for doing what they enjoy. mtmuley
I'd rather have my foot in a leg hold, than have somebody gut shoot me with a crossbow wearing face paint. All I'm gonna say.
I thought you bought KUIU pants?
Not me. I only have one. These were taken by guys I had been working with. There are some guys here in my area that have really been good at killing wolves. Like I said, it takes a lot of time and effort. mtmuley
Best way to legally kill wolves is trapping.
