Trapping With The Goannas Part 2

This is a glimpse of the reality dog trappers face. Not every day you have success but there is always tomorrow. But it is great to just be outdoors and in nature and get a good laugh and enjoy the wild life even when they make life a little more difficult.

Another great vid mate and the goannas are so cool, I remember up in Darwin out bush we scared one and it ran straight up my mate that was taking a piss next to the tree it was heading for, my mate has a nice set of claw scars to remind him of that day, the rest of us thought it was funny as hell cheers Yogi 👍🤘🇦🇺

[@xuejiaoxu6778]

They will do that😂😂 last thing you want to do is stand still when a goanna is spooked.

[@intothenight1993]

That's hilarious 🤣🤣🤣

Love your true blue aussie way of telling the world what we have here cobber. The dry aussie way you tell it is bangon mate.🤠🤠🤠 Bring on number 3.

Thanks Daryl 👍

Good work, those goannas need some nice juicy cats.

[@intothenight1993]

Haha if i shoot one down there i should feed it to them🤣

Goannasaurus 🙂

Spotted a few tracks you certainly have some feral critters there , for one man to cover such a large area you certainly have your work cut out trapping and spot lighting to try to reduce the numbers , I know you didn’t get anything this time but it was great seeing the goanna they certainly have a fantastic sense of smell to follow your roo drag , it certainly would be difficult to protect any carcass hung in a tree from them , love following your journey keep up the good work all the best from Tassie

[@intothenight1993]

Thanks mate. That block is only 1280 acres but between that block and our home block which is about 9000 acres. I keep pretty busy 👌

[@davidhandyman7571]

🤠 You, like so many bushies, are a true conservationist. You understand and appreciate the native wildlife without getting all gushy over what does not belong. 👍

[@Browneye2566]

You sure managed to get the goannas out & about. I dunno how many species of them there are, but once I was putting rubbish is a big metal bin at a camp site. I scared a goanna in the bin & it sure scared the living shit out of me. It ran up a tree & it's head was higher than mine and half its tail was on the ground. Only other big goanna I saw was one of those perenti goannas in central Australia. Great life you got there. That property is obviously the size of a small country.

[@intothenight1993]

Haha yes they can get pretty big. That block is only 1280 acres 👍

I wish you better luck!

Not happy you didn't get to shoot your at something but love your dog and still a good video the land

@@intothenight1993 If getting nothing is due to what's about that can be part of successful pest control. Whereas shooting/trapping a lot can be the opposite. Too counter-intuitive for some to grasp at times.

Old goanna looked like he had a full belly.

[@intothenight1993]

Yes but it wasn't from the wallaby he was looking for though 🤣

[@brettellis1837]

Long grass can be the trappers friend old trapper used peanut 🥜 paste as a lure food.another bloke would use GOOD_ O DOG FOOD TIE 2 TO 3 STRANDS OF GRASS THREAD THE RINGS OF DOG FOOD ONTO IT BLOODY WORKS A TREAT. SO SIMPLE CRAY FISH HEADS ARE GOOD AS WELL COTTON IS USED TO TIE HEADS IN GRASS DIS COLOUR WITH BIT OF WATER AND MUD OR USE BLACK COTTON TRICK.

[@jamiemarquiss6065]

Great video again, pal. No vegetables with your supper, you won't grow into a big strong man!!!!

[@intothenight1993]

Haha i get plenty of them at home 😉

[@TheCaptainbeefylog]

Bit of a bugger losing the end cap like that. You'd be driving every goanna for miles nuts looking for that carcass lol. THey're pretty cool critters, but absolute hell on wheels if you ever run into one that's pissed off. Locally they're loved/hated because tourists don't secure their food properly when camping in the national park. Bit funny hearing about them coming back to a tent with a couple of goannas fighting it out inside over the last of the bacon.

[@intothenight1993]

Yeah i looked them up and they were like $50 for a new one. So i got my father in law to make me one out of stainless steel and it works a treat 👌 Yeah the goannas certainly know how to steel stuff they like to eat and aren't afraid to have a sticky beak in tents or houses. It's very funny to see a goanna trying to run away on tiles. 🤣 🤣

@@intothenight1993 A couple of wraps of insulation tape will prevent it vibrating loose. Replace it occasionally particularly after it gets wet, rust can form beneath it out of sight. Tape over the end of the barrel will keep out the dust & mud too, but if in the wet will be an obstruction in the event of a drop of water in the barrel, don't know if enough to affect accuracy.

[@yvonneost12]

Do you not ever try hanging a carcass on a low hanging branch and traps around the base in a circle ? would that work ?

[@intothenight1993]

I haven’t really done that. But when there are a lot of goannas around I don’t like to use food based lures.

[@asya9493]

Whats the straight feature at 2:47 ? Looks like an old runway ?

[@intothenight1993]

It is the boundary fence line that has been graded a while ago as a fire break. 👍

Hey, why didn't you give the wallaby carcass to the goanna to eat?

[@intothenight1993]

I did leave it for them eventually. 👍

[@cherylmillard2067]

I can't remember if I have asked you this before, but what is the difference between the Dingo and wild dog? I've been working with my new dog, Maxi, she's a Belgian Malinois, a high energy dog and lots of fun. Thank you for the interesting videos!!!

[@intothenight1993]

Dingos are wild dogs. They were brought here by the aboriginals and went wild. But they have bred with domestic dogs and some areas especially around the coast there are more cross bred wild dogs. Out here is say most of them are pure dingos but that can only be properly determined with a DNA test. Hope that answers your question. 👍

How old is your dogs

He will be 9 years old later this year. Still plenty of energy 👌
