You are negative, weather you see it or not
Maybe you should have read the Iowa red fox study and you wouldn't have had to post this
And maybe finish the article before coming to a conclusion
Or maybe just some comprehension classes

Making nonsense post's is coonmans job around here
We Love you coonman

Had that for years here and still no muskrats.

PAs muskrat problem is a head scratcher for sure
I think it's a combination of many factors keeping the muskrats from coming back in numbers
JMO

Right, I feel the same, many factors. Bocos answers are always so cut and dry LOL.

What is nonsense to you, wasn’t to me,, and I made the post as I understood it.
I do thank the individuals who were kind enough to help better explain it to me.

I don’t know what your agenda is to keep hounding me,, I’ve done nothing to you or anyone else on this forum,, I’ve never ran anyone down.
As I said previously,, don’t like my posts,, don’t read them!!!

I have a compromise foxkidd
If you don't post it, I won't read it

Go pound sand!! Got it!!

That wasn't very nice
And where would you suggest I pound said sand?

Must be that a cult shop in town. Foxkidd you gotta get out of that place!

You can have great habitat for animals but if it is too fraagmented or non contiguous small mammals like rats will never get to it.
Its the same here with marten and clearcut logging,You can have the best marten habitat in the world but if you trap it out and if dispersing animals cant get there or get predated on by raptors or other predators before they get there its useless.

Can you imagine if we still had the post counter...how many more useless

Posts would show up....

Ironically,,, there’s more folks than myself who have a tendency to respond to practically every single post on here… talk about trying to scream for attention or post count going sky high.

There are plenty of way more useless posts on here every day than what foxkidd posts.

In My Humble Opinion of course.
Get it? Thats one there.

Look at all the T-man stars that replied to foxkidd
White,Pete Dirt Tatiana,
You guys could just dream to be that lucky.

If the marten can't get there because of terrain
How did they get there in the first place?

God put them there.

You still don't understand yet, I'll make it simple
There's no stupid questions
But some people are s......

You so funny

Well you asked a stupid question,I was just being nice.

O
Part of the problem, and what I thought foxkidd was complaining about, is that so many animal rights groups don't read past the first chapter. Or ignore it, because it doesn't support the narrative they want. They use it as a "scientific proof" that managing via trapping or hunting doesn't work/isn't necessary. I have read multiple articles where "scientists" are quoted as saying that trapping/hunting is counterproductive because it causes predators to produce more and causes higher populations. These are the same people that the next week will claim that hunting/trapping needs to be shut down to protect "threatened" populations. They use whatever argument they think will work best with their audience, regardless of how contradictary it is with other arguments they have used in the past or will use in the future.
