Will you do a show on trapping in snow?
Filed under: Predators
Question
Dr. Woods,
Could you do an episode on trapping in the winter snow? I’m up here in Minnesota and we just got our first snow of the season. I’ve heard from several farmers in the area that they have stopped letting their dogs out at night for fear of the local coyote population. We have great habat, but I fear the local utes are feasting on fawns, pheasant chicks, and duck eggs every spring.

Great show!

Andrew,
I don’t have a lot of experience trapping in snow. It snows where I live in Missouri, but rarely is there snow cover for more than a week at a time.
Enjoy creation,
