Guys, we know that foothold traps were used in the controversial reintroduction programs .
Is there any place where this information can be found?
Govt agencies?
Published studies?
This is getting to be an extremely hot issue,, I’m getting several groups coming up on my Facebook feed that are extremely pro wolf…yet, they believe it’s nonsense that foothold traps were responsible for the wolves being captured. I don’t engage, and I should probably not even click on to them to see their discussions.

But some of these people are headlong crazy.

MTFWP uses, or at least did, the LPC traps with teeth. They said the teeth would puncture the skin and prevent the edema and swelling.
