I'm happy and impressed that Boon wasn't distracted by the ducklings. They would have been easier to catch, but very illegal, not to mention off target.

[@ghoulbuster1]

Easy prey, no fun!

[@kristensorensen2219]

Illegal?🤔🤷🌰s

As someone who has had some experience with training (mostly) dogs, NOTHING EVEN REMOTELY compared to what Mink Man is and does, I think what Joe has done with Boon and many of his animals is nearly amazing. Boon is a little hammer, that little guy can boogie woogie. And then (I'm sure in Joe's hands) a cream puff...totally adorable. So Joseph, my hats off to you as far as the 2nd part of this video and some of what you mentioned. You're right we all (people and animals) have an amazing amount of potential but I can assure you of 2 things: you are a high performing animal trainer and boon is a high performing trained animal, it would take years and years for someone to replicate your current state of performing.

[@JosephCartertheMinkMan]

I can attest to that!!!!! Years of breeding (or luck) and years of training, BOTH!!

[@darryl0harris]

As someone who's been watching since the beginning you can see how far he's come with the mink. Boon would hunt circles around the 1st generation mink.

[@MichelleRauKlimas739501]

I love Mr. Boon he's a sweet beast. That muskrat has probably defended that area for awhile. She looks pretty big eating well. Then Mr. Boon comes to town and Cleans up. Lol..

[@ToofAst4Fun]

You deserve every bit of enjoyment and pride you get hunting with Boon, Joe! Crockett is just really entertaining to watch hunt. The way he shoots out of the cage like a wind up Willey Coyote after whatever he's pointed at is great to see! Won't lie, it's funny to watch you feed him up too when you basically have to throw the food in his direction to not lose a finger 😅. Great bloodline you've worked up to over the years.

[@Gizmomaster]

What Boon is doing is the equivalent of a human swimming into the middle of a lake and grabbing and killing a fish the size of a human. Imagine trying to catch a fish with your hands that’s the same size as you!

[@rodney1818]

Joseph I have got to say I am extremely impressed that boon went against his nature and ignored the Ducks

[@tadglidden679]

Boon is an incredible critter. Can't wait to see some of his offspring.

[@sgsheff]

that was definitely the most impressive underwater takedown I've seen on your channel. Really impressed with Boon lately after he went through some struggles earlier on.

[@jessidigger]

watching Boon take on that Muskrat, I remember Brock and his deep confidence. It so good to see those genes that you have carefully breed come through in Boon. He has Brocks confidence for sure.

[@aesbj9228]

It's not that Crocket hates you - it's more that he loves to bite you. And I lol'd.

[@rodney1818]

I've got to admit I've watched your channel on and off for quite some time and it's hard to pick a favorite but this boon guy is awesome

[@kathybrandt6060]

Joe the way you and Boone work together as a unit it’s poetry in motion. You have a mink that truly does love you, and will do anything you ask of him. And a mink that is so good at killing muskrats, beautiful. And I agree wholeheartedly that you should enjoy this relationship make use of it learn from it. And film your adventures, so I on my couch can be in Monday morning quarterback. Ha ha ha

[@BodyGuardCZ]

Another one … comment from two weeks ago … sadly we can see this video just from today …

[@TheCaptainbeefylog]

Another big hit for the Ole Boonster! Those ducks were NOT happy to see him lol.

[@rixretros]

It's great to see Boon's training pay off with such a great catch......for Boon AND Joe. I love those shots of Boon riding along in the truck and truly being at home in what would normally be (to him) a totally foreign environment. He's truly an unique mink.

[@epalacios1502]

I just looked up that mink only live 3-7 years so yeah man enjoy your homie Boone for as long as you can man. We all wish we had a little warrior as a friend.

[@bionicman6969]

Boon is a natural born killer, plus the fact you have done an excellent job training him. Spectacular catch.

[@hankrawlings6505]

You're intro says it all----"challenge accepted". This is vindication of all of your efforts. Outstanding!!

[@TreyTheExemplar]

I’m glad that mink you loved so much came back to you and even better then before

[@xirn5283]

He didn’t even need rocks to guide him

[@silverskyranch]

"I'm in Dallas, my out-door pursuits are pretty limited." First words out of my mouth hearing that was 'Come to Carrolton! I'm constantly having to chase critters out of my yard!' lol Seriously though, when I had my 'pack' of dogs, critters were never an issue, but now that my last/youngest dog is now 16+, Squirrels, Skunks & Opossums are a constant issue in the garden, and I've occasionally seen black rats as well. There's even been sightings of Coyotes and Bobcats in the neighborhood, and this is still considered 'Dallas', just as far north as the city possible goes. Surprisingly lot of wildlife up here that we have to learn to live with.

[@Redbull357]

I'm here smiling watching how happy Boon's progress makes you. Enjoy it!

[@patrickd4049]

Hello, I watch your videos from of France, I say to myself, you do a sacred a working And also with your animal the small mink very good to catch the big rats hidden underground and for the mice Because I think of a farmer on a farm with lots of rats and mice, it becomes a big problem there. The method is very good, because it is natural, without risk for the other animals and cats and others animals Cordially,

[@meltarin5203]

I love seeing this little guy! I would like to see more of Mr BOONE!

[@buckearly2009]

People think "Crocs" do death rolls!!! That was Boones version!!!! Very aggressive and purposeful!!!!

[@Studio23Media]

That was so cool! Boon stalked that fella down and pounced! 🤯 Something I'm learning about training animals as my first service dog has had to retire due to health issues: start training another animal NOW. You don't want to end up without an animal to meet your needs. Service dogs take hours and hours to train and it'll be probably a year before we go in public. Though I know dogs are wayyyy different animals. 😂

[@JanetinTexaslll]

Murky waters, distracting ducks couldn't stop him good job!

[@Drakonus75]

I remember you saying in past videos that a regular mink would have a lot of trouble beating a muskrat in open water. I still believe that to be true. This is no regular mink. The parents were picked for their already remarkable strengths, and you've fully bonded with and trained it from the time it was able. You've created a supermink!

[@Drakonus75]

On a side note, do you like ravens and/or crows? If I ever make the decision to get a hunting bird, would a pair of ravens be a good option? Also, would it even be possible to get ravens and crows to get along well enough to teach them group signals?

[@JosephCartertheMinkMan]

@@Drakonus75 I love the whole crow family, ESPECIALLY Ravens! I don't know that you could hunt much with them. They're pretty opportunistic when they prey on things, they are as specialized as birds of prey.

[@lyreparadox]

@@Drakonus75 If you want to hunt with a pair of birds, you could try Harris Hawks. They naturally hunt in groups in the wild.

[@SewerTapes]

Boon is a very good boy. Nothing short of impressive.

[@snotrocket1142]

its so cool to watch you this excited. the enjoyment is on full display and it made this video even better. i am all about watching you enjoy the fruits of your labor and it will make for fantastic videos.

[@reemshine8321]

Living in nyc this has been my way to fight back watching these videos 😂🎉

[@anamarijahren3944]

Have you ever considered or came across a small camera (they are usually for cats) that you chould put on your mink while they hunt? I'm not sure if they would maybe make it harder for the mink to hunt, although they arent much bigger than the GPS that you put on them. Also now that I think about it not sure how much "good footage" you would get from it. Love your videos, always a treat 😁

[@cameroncashatt692]

knowing his luck it would probably get stuck in a burrow

[@SuperExodian]

probably not enough light underground to be watchable

[@lyreparadox]

it might work for the brown rat hunting videos, where they're more running under stuff rather than down in burrows?

[@danajgolden]

Totally cool how Boon didn’t go after the ducks. They didn’t phase him at all!

I can’t blame Boon for his hesitance… the chompers on the muskrat could bite his leg clean off.

[@Mroberts818]

I like the explanation of temperament and choosing a mink to work with. Just like with any animal, the more you handle them the more manageable they are the more you leave them alone, the feral they might become. It's the consistency of the trainer along with the temperament of the animal. Sorry. For the rant. This was something that took me a while to learn ..lol

[@kimlindseyOH]

Good for you, Joe! Enjoy the fruits of your labor with Boon.😀 I cannot get over how he is with you in the car; my cat would definitely not be that cooperative! Question: Do you have a sense for how long it wil be until you hand-raise another mink? - that is, how will you know when Boon will need an assistant ... LOL, like "succession planning" in a business. Or might it happen just because you yourself want another challenge? or maybe because a new kit seems particularly promising? Thanks for sharing this awesome hunt with us!
