Go ahead... hate me. I'm from south Georgia. I live in the woods. I'm not liberal... and a lot of things I can understand hunting for, even though I don't hunt myself... most of my family does. But I do not understand hunting bobcats. Why? And I absolutely am against traps. I feel that they are not humane. I'm not an activist, just a concerned citizen who cares deeply for wild life and domestic animals alike. Perhaps there is something I just do not know.
@southgasportsman207 ай бұрын
I value your opinion 100%. Our game-bird population is struggling. Turkeys and other ground nesting birds such as bobwhite quail are struggling to say the least. This is largely due to habitat loss. However, predators do play a part in this. Animals such as bobcats, coyotes, and fox eat the young birds and eggs, and nest predators such as opossum and raccoons also feast on the eggs. They can bust up an entire nest. The traps aide in controlling these populations. I can assure you the traps don’t cause any pain. In fact I have purposely put my hand in these traps to show others they do not hurt. The traps portrayed in movies which cause pain are grizzly bear traps and they have teeth and have long been banned. These newer models are referred to as offset jaw traps and they have a gap in there that does not allow complete closure on the foot. If you have any other questions I would be happy to answer. Thanks again for your comment!
@xx_Joker_xx7 ай бұрын
@@southgasportsman20 coyotes, I completely understand are an issue. Living out very rural, I see and hear them all the time. My dogs have chased them off many times. I know they prey on deer fawns and other native wildlife species... they have no natural predator where I live. Hunting them is necessary for many reasons. However, bobcats are rarely even seen. I've seen maybe 2 in the area I live in and I have lived here for 10 years. Fox... pretty much the same as bobcats. I keep chickens... if there were a big issue with them, I'd be one of the ones to shoot them, for obvious reasons. But that has not been the case ever. There is a fox that hangs around my property, it's a female fox and she seems to prefer to give birth around my house. I hear her and her kits. None of these animals has posed a threat to my animals, including my chickens and pigeons. What I do have an issue with is possum. They eat the heads off my chickens... leave the rest. And I do have to shoot them for that reason. I don't like the idea of killing any animal that I am not going to eat. Not even for fur. But I do realize that once some animals discover a food source, like possum, they don't stop and they don't just go away. And I also realize that my particular situation and observation may not be the one others see. However, I will never see native animals as a huge issue. I think it is mostly the coyotes doing most of what you are seeing with the birds. I can remember when they were not here and there was no issue with numbers of nesting birds. By the way, I rescued a mourning dove 5 years ago. My dog brought it up one night as a fledgling that apparently got pushed or fell out of it's nest. It could not fly and could not feed itself. I still have him! Best pet bird I ever had! Yes, I know people hunt them. But this little guy is an awesome bird pet! I did try to set him free when he could feed himself, but he didn't want to go. So he lives on my back porch (screened in back porch). He's happy and healthy. I respect hunting. I grew up in a family of hunters. But when animals come onto my property, it's like they know they are safe from that... as long as they don't mess with my chickens, my cat and my dogs. I had one cat that was taken by an owl even. I have a lot of predatory birds around. Hawks and falcons nesting even. But they all serve a purpose in the balance of our system. My chickens can't free range because of them. They get my snakes and mice. Squirrels too I suppose. Balance is key, I do know that. I figured that there had to be a reason. But I do not think bobcats and fox are the primary issue. Usually, decreased numbers are a result of invasives and loss of habitat. Florida is very messed up now for those reasons. As far as the traps go... still not fond of that method. My dogs rarely get out and roam too much, but they have gotten out before. I'd hate if they got caught up in one and became a meal because they were trapped. One of my fears. I have gators around also. Swampy land where I live. Dang sorry I wrote so much! LOL! My southern is showing I think.
