One of our guys claims he saw a woodchuck and a badger having a snowball fight. ( He couldn't make a positive I.D. though. They were both wearing hoodies )

They better run! After Phil and his forcast was obviously a plot to overthrow the Govt, I consider them all enemy combatants

I've shot several with the trusty .22wmr in the last couple weeks. Haven't hunted them just shoot when I see them.

Seen one running threw the snow in my backyard on the 16 th this month. (Mike I thought about the rifle but had a cleanout to get to.) Saw one the same time last yr in the snow same spot too. Heading to check out a spot tomorrow that says they are coming up in a dirt floor basement.

I build fake groundhogs and place them by the hole so that they cast a shadow,,, this keeps them under ground

Got that lying sucker!


This is a male, caught the female last week. That's the way it has been going, a male and a female in each spot. Maybe I should have rescheduled for June. Might be able to squeeze out a few more per job that way.

Andy and others; I thought you might get a kick out of this. Woodchucks have been a protected animal in Wisconsin for as long as I can remember. ( Probably 70 years )

Yesterday's newspaper had an article about opening up a season on woodchuck because they are a pest. For the last several decades, people have been killing and trapping woodchucks and I have never heard of one single arrest or ticket because of it.

I suppose if we actually have a season on them, arrests are inevitable.
