Did you know that weasels go into bear dens in the winter and kill new bear cubs while the mother is hibernating?

I could see a weasel eating a small bear cub

Best one I know, and hear regularly is "if you kill coyotes you end up with even more coyotes because they respond by having bigger litters".

What a crock!

Wisconsin DNR telling me personal seining of shiners in the Lower Wisconsin River, used in the same area without removal from the water to transport, and then releasing unused shiners into the same spot they were seined will spread VHS. That's right, exactly what I was told.

Wolves:
only kill what they need to survive.
only kill the weak and starving.
only the alpha male and female breed and have pups.
have distinct territories and never cross those lines.
once you catch a wolf in a set, you will never get another wolf to go to that set again.
don't eat fish.
and many more fantasies.


Just doing what I want now.

If you pick a skunk up by the tail it won't spray, put that to the test when I was 12 and figured I needed a pet skunk. It's not true, little bugger sprayed me till he was dry

Yes, I’ve heard that also. What I do know, every female coyote killed will never have anymore litters. LOL

Michigan DNR planted coyotes to curb the deer population. Can't tell you how many times I've heard that bunk.

A spike deer will always be a spike deer, and never a trophy.
