Strange more folks aren’t posting on this thread. Maybe the Nez Perce County Fairgrounds doesn’t offer WiFi.

* For whatever it's worth . . .

I have a couple of long time friends who are (semi) retired wildlife photographers and film makers.
For years they shot footage and sold to Marty Stouffer Productions, so they knew him personally.
I can't tell you how many baby animals I have given them to raise ( and of course film ) in the last 30 years.
Coyote, fox, skunk, raccoon . . . the list goes on and on.
I am someone who has access to wildlife after all.
Is filming a hand raised animal in it's natural environment considered 'staging' ?
Depends on how you look at it !

Regardless, it is how a lot of it is done.
And done by the best of them.
You wouldn't get the footage otherwise.
It is entertainment after all and that is what they are selling : Entertainment !
Never forget that 98% of the population does not have contact with wildllfe the way a hunter and trapper does.
And that ! , my friends, is who is the audience of shows like Wild America.

Marty Stouffer doesn't care that you, a hunter and / or trapper doesn't like his views, his show or him.
He selling entertaiment.
And that gives that 98% of the population a chance to view animals up close and personal.
You do whatever it takes to get 'the shot' .

Now did he STATE this is all natural footage.
Not sure I've ever seen that in print.
Overall the footage is outstanding , induced or otherwise.

I mean, wasn't it film maker (and trapper) TOM MIRANDA who said of old westerns : 'The cowboys didn't really shoot the Indians . . .yeah, I believe it was.

Every great story is better with a little embellishment

You need to:
Change brands
Pick up stool immediately
Add something to alter the stool taste, like meat tenderizer or one of the myriad of offerings at the pet store.
Mother dog's cleaning up after the pup's often develop that habit.


So....do I put meat tenderizer on the turds in the yaahd ??

Not awesome at all. My point is that this is mostly an issue found in blue states like MN, and NOT in red states like MS. Your people likely wouldn't need to move across country, I am sure they could find work in neighboring SD, ND, or IA. The solution is changing your state government.... or moving.

Is this a dig at me?? If so... I entered the workforce at 16 and worked all my life. I am currently increasing the money in my IRA exponentially through active management of my accounts. And yes, I went back to school in my 40s because I was getting too old for the physically demanding jobs I have worked for the past 20 years and am looking for a less demanding career for the next 20.

Not aimed at you or anyone else bettering themselves later in life.
I was referring to those who never stop going to school on the govt dime taking useless course after course and making their living going to school permanently.
See lots of people doing that.

This area might see a increase in a few trappers but not horrible. All my trapping is mainly done on private land so don't worry to much.

The Powerkill took a red squirrel. The wood base ones sometimes allowed the red squirrels to pull out. Hopefully the teeth stop that from happening. The bail caught it mid chest, not in the sure hold spot behind the skull.

Get some Comstock 9x11x24 with a nosecone. It makes catching groundhogs from burrows almost too easy. Once the trap is "seasoned" by a groundhog, it gets even easier.

Those posts have been in the ground for 20 years, their probably getting a little rough looking.
I'd just build a new one because the other one might not have many years left without some work being done to the post in the ground.
Just my thoughts

Bottom pic= Looks like powder/shot bushings.
Black handle T tool is for reaming out holes in a flat tire.
Blue nippers= snipping flash/Sprue off molded bullet's/fish weights.
Hammer=knocking Sprue gate off to the side to clean sprue flash
No idea what the little chain is for
Extra micrometer head likely for bullet seating die.

Lure and Bait Formulator's forum

I know of one commercially produced lure that is rotted down skunk carcasses. Not sure if the pods are left on them but I would think they could only improve the base end product. If you do this, be sure you leave as much of the fat from the skunk on the carcass. I would also recommend removing the guts,head,tailbone and feet. You sould end up with a pretty fair start of a base product. The skys the limit after that. Good luck!
