Maybe we need to define which trend data 49er first. Might make it easier to explore.

It is the quality of our out door experience that matters, the only thing that matters.
Uggh. It raised it's ugly head again Justin!
Quality of experience is the most liberal term I ever have had the displeasure of hearing.
Is it the word "Quality" or the word "experience" that scares you so? I'll try to be more "sensitive" to your "displeasures" in the future.

Marten in some areas prefer alders for some reason which doesnt make sense as no denning trees ect, but possibly was just one study. Usually Marten have young in hollow tree up high and after a time bring young down to some hole or stump in ground. When Wisc did Marten study and my trapping partner and myself made marten boxes and marten release pens all i asked was of the DNR to let us know when they had marten so my trapping partner could see one. The DNR never contact us so partner never saw a marten. This after us donating all the material for boxes and cages for nothing.... still i like marten even if the DNR shafted my partner in just not letting him see a marten.

Well maybe they didn't catch any Or not very many.
They are going to the alders to feed since that's where the food Is. Marten are a lost cause and we will probably never have a sustainable population here In WI.
It was you that made the comment that the fisher were preying on the marten.
When I trapped that one year In Canada we always looked for those sections of heavy black spruce stands when we set for marten. Well at least as I can remember those were the preferred areas.

In my area marten prefer the coniferous forest with good overhead cover and lots of coarse woody debris on the forest floor,so they can hunt and move around under the snow when it gets cold and the snow gets deep.This is the older 60+ year old growth.This is core marten habitat.Juvenile marten dispersing usually stick to corridors with good overhead cover like timbered drainages that run thru burns,clearcuts etc,and connect core marten habitat.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Do the wolves eat the white ones? If so, send my way. Just another example of shortsighted deer hunters.

It is the unintended side effects of people want ot enhance their quality of experience. It's why you wisconsin guys are having a hard time drawing bear permits, cat permits, otter permit. Your quality of experience should only be accomplished through individual effort and hard work, not some psuedo-science that is tailored to meet the fashion of the day.

Maybe we need to define which trend data 49er first. Might make it easier to explore. Tell me if I am being too simplistic with my reasoning. I'd wager Boco most likely doesnt have an idea what the marten population in Ontario overall is but I'll bet he can tell me what his line can handle based on the trends of what is harvesting comparing male/female ratio and adult to young of year. I'll bet you white 17 could as well. I'd wager JB in Nevada could say the same about cat harvest using the trend data. Your Wisconsin biologist like to think they can count wolves with in a plus minus 12 but I'm here to tell you aint nobody that good.

Handitrapper, some of that reasoning led to the map below. This caused some issues with the deer hunters because they could not look long term. Only wanted to look short term.

Why would you?
