Rats, Norway and Roof rats. Dad made it my responsibility to keep them cleaned out of the barn and chicken coop.

My dad trapped and I tagged along when I was about 8 years old. If there were weasel on the pond we were trapping, he would let me set for them while he concentrated on rats. I loved trapping weasel; still do today. Unfortunately, they're not worth much.


The difference between animals and humans is that animals would never let the dumbest ones lead the pack.

Spotted skunks, I caught three of them before trapping any other furbearers.

started out trapping coons. Driving home from checking traps one morning I found a beaver on the side of the highway that had been hit by a car. Set a couple of traps for beaver the next day, and I have been hooked on beaver trapping since.
