Donnersurvivor trapper D Joined: Jan 2018 MN	Originally Posted by stinkypete The Meeker County cat/cats have been on camera for 3 yrs. Last year was the last time the young man hunted the area. Plenty of other places to hunt. When a cat takes your deer. Eats it and buries the rest. Why stay)))))))!!!!! Litchfield Mn is the area. I would love to see a lion. Would you ask the guy if he would be interested in predator calling (back to back and armed) in an attempt to see a cat? Or maybe see if he would be open to sharing a location after a fresh snow for tracking? Appreciate it.

If Minnesota has a resident breeding population they would have to manage it. In today's political environment I can't see anything positive for hunting and trapping coming from that. The winner for the day. Nothing good would come your way from an acknowledgement of such a population. Unless you feel listing petitions and more restrictions on hunting & trapping are a good thing. I believe this to be true but if I remember right a guy was charged for shooting one in a culvert a number of years back. So it is still a SSS kind of deal. I haven't seen them but know of several people that have had them on camera around this area.

I had one follow me through the woods one time. Creepy. North Dakota is starting to get some of our wolves too. Not a bad trade. www.berniesbearcamp.com https://www.youtube.com/user/BowhuntingRoad/about
