Saving Burrowing Owls From Invasive Iguanas

Saving Burrowing Owls From Invasive Iguanas. The burrowing owl is one of the smallest owls in Florida. Iguanas don't just damage property they also kick out endangered burrowing owls and eat their eggs. This is just one of the many issues with iguanas. I try my best to take these invasive iguanas out each and every day.

bro get a tall bi/tripod to mount your air rifle on, you'll be hitting head shots with ease all day

[@Getmadfoul]

I live in Fl, and I want to help and hunt these Iguanas

[@jamestoy4835]

Would love to join you. Otto is Legend.

[@jamestoy4835]

What kind of money do you make?

[@Eternal_Soul1]

Excuse me sir but as a Canadian I find your use of weapons and hunting of these creatures to be absolutely fantastic.

[@laurajackson2429]

I believe Trapper Mike and Otto-Matic deserve a conservation award!🏅 I truly enjoy watching your adventures and your native animals Thank-you!

[@galaxyn3214]

These owls are lucky that someone is looking out for their right to rent burrows!

[@comfortablynumb9342]

Those poor owls are threatened everywhere in Florida. In Cape Coral there are Nile monitor lizards eating the owls. Rats in other places. The gopher tortoises are threatened too because they live in holes.

[@ryanm7615]

No one does it better than trapper Mike!

[@TheHappinessOfThePursuit]

Lucky someone gives a hoot.

[@Hamilton8122]

As a absolute owl lover definitely love how ur helping them

[@floridacracker_]

Born and raised in FL for 42 years now, hunted, fished, you name it I've done it but never have seen a Burrowing Owl before. Hell didn't even know an Owl Burrowed. Thx for showing me something new brother 👍

[@comfortablynumb9342]

Thanks for helping the native owls and other critters by taking out the invasives! I wonder if anyone cleaned out the monitors that were eating the owls in Cape Coral? Where's the new iguana dog? Otto is always badass. Hopefully the new one works out too.

[@PythonCowboy]

Catfish had the day off this trip but you'll see a lot more of him. Yes, he's getting trained from the best!

[@JayLang7]

Just love how exited Otto gets. Love seeing dogs work, being put to good use instead of having them sleeping around all day long in a house.

[@sherrylingenfelter8991]

We have burrowing owls in our neighborhoods. Really appreciate your efforts to remove the invasive species in Florida.

[@tonyradmilovich3154]

As an unabashed lover of owls, you my compadre have reached hero status! That notwithstanding, anybody who spends their days (and/or nights!) caring for our environment is heroic in my book. Keep up the good work and don't get bit/shot/strangled or drowned.

[@asimovstarling8806]

As a former floridian and native of the state for 30 years, I would like to thank you sir for your service to my home state. even though I don't live there anymore, It does my heart good to see you performing these hunts, and it makes me feel good. Thank you.

[@dontask8979]

The Owls popping out are awesome. They are smart too, they know exactly what you are doing.

[@goldenhazeduster]

I love it when Otto squeals as he is chasing those lizards. Reminds me of my old coon dog.

[@robobin]

There's something so immensely satisfying about watching your clients nail these things in the head. Thanks for all the videos and work you and Otto do!

[@debbiesdeathpile]

I love burrowing owls! They’re adorable. Perry airport used to have lots of them in the grassy areas and they were protected on the BCC campus in Davie when I went there. Thank you for protecting them! Your the best 🦉

[@314biggy]

Otto was the star of the show on this video! What an awesome dog!

[@Matt-uj9wl]

Great videos Mike! love the content, keep putting out the word on invasive species. Next Florida trip me and the misses will book a hunt for sure!

[@GO-xs8pj]

You are doing great work for the environment. Don't let anyone give you a hard time.

[@v.dargain1678]

Thanks for helping the burrowing owls survive .

[@philipballard8083]

What a fantastic video I think you are doing a brilliant job in keeping those beautiful birds safe it’s also a pleasure to your dog enjoying his work please keep up the fantastic work

[@johnpence8529]

There are quite a few burrowing owls here in the high desert of NM. Preferred residences are prairie dog burrows. Really pretty little raptors. Thanks for trying to help them out there where you live, Good video

[@LiLJESS.]

Otto is a bad ass hunter i love watching him, I bet he’s exhausted after chasing, I hope he gets treats and a good sleep after his haunts 😁

[@beverlyhanlon8376]

Thanks again. Good work. Take care Mike and Otto.

[@user-vi2dk1qz5f]

I love Otto. Great job what you all are doing. Keep getting them.

[@LLMiller1]

What y’all do is so important Sending love from Texas

[@misstayliana1]

The guest’s shots never fail to impress. Otto’s a good boy. Keep up the good work

[@christopherblevins1968]

Dang, they slayed 'em!! I love watching these hunts and Otto working!

[@v.dargain1678]

Still haven't reduced their numbers enough .

[@ShmoofWB]

Great video as always, Mike.

[@Tyme_flies]

Otto is the real hero. Im here for him. I hope you treat him like the king he is. That dog is working hard. Go Otto !

[@Countrybluez]

Been away for a little while. What a dog you have now!! He was an unruly pup last time I was watching. The amount he has improved is really impressive. I know the pain you go through with a young dog to get them to his level, well done.

[@jamesspalten5977]

They have to have some go or they will never make it!!

[@duxdawg]

100% support you in this.

[@travissweeney788]

I will be down for a day or 2, on bucket list now! Love watching ott and your self do your thing

[@GrimMetropolis]

I live in the mountains of norcal. I had no idea iguanas are an invasive species. only takes one thing to throw off an entire ecosystem. very interesting videos. lots of info on a place i have no clue about. ✌

[@kimnoble9434]

I get so nervous when Ot jumps in the water. I worry a gator will get him. Thanks for all that you do.

[@Richard.Cabeza]

Thanks for what you do there. I lived in Naples and remember seeing the owls in the winter at night with frost on their whiskers. Cutest little things. If I get back there I will see what I can do for this cause.

[@brianquilty687]

Here in Manitoba Canada we have a Burrowing Owl recovery program to try and bring the numbers back up. Here, it is mostly habitat loss. Those two were real snipers !

[@charlieparker2773]

Thanks for another super hunt 👍🏼 The retriever really shined today she was kickin ass && takin names , You Sir. Have super kennel 💯 W / R

[@owen2925]

Fantastic video. Love your content!

[@hollykellon8331]

lake worth power company has been hit hard 2 times by iguanas. the last time the city of lake worth was without power for days because of these invasive creatures. the climb up in the power grids and wreck it. keep up the good work mike.

[@joshimitsu96]

Thanks for saving the beautiful owls.

[@kengregory6937]

Another great vlog. Way to go Mike. I would like to know how many iguanas you have removed. You must be in the thousands by now. Keep up the good work.

[@jamesspalten5977]

I love your comment about the paddle boat!! 😂😂🤣🤣 I like Suzuki's as well. I had a 35 horse Suzuki 2 stroke back in the late '80's when everyone thought that the only thing that Suzuki made was motorcycles. It did nothing but run!!

[@davidobrien3600]

Otto seems to be able to dive about 10 yards out of your boat into the water. He just launches himself like a missile

[@phillipbarnhouse496]

You guys got them today , thanks Mike and Otto !!!

[@REDMAN298]

Thanks for a job well done. Those owls are so vulnerable.

[@JT-LV]

Great vid!

[@Flies2FLL]

Awesome video!

[@davidkuhlman1001]

I remember seeing quite a few burrowing owls in northwest Broward County in the mid 2000s. So rare to see them. FAUs mascot, the fighting owls, come from burrowing owls. They have some on campus in a small protected nature area. Thanks python cowboy!

[@Ryaquaza]

I enjoy your videos. It looks like fun to hunt those pest. May Otto have great years to come

[@ShySkill]

Thank you for protecting wildlife!

[@sarahdani2519]

This is so amazing! Legit would pay to go iguana shooting with you and the dog one day! Looks super fun! And helps the ecosystem

[@davidobrien3600]

I never knew how bad the Iguana has become to our beautiful state of Florida until I started watching your videos. They seem to be endless and in the mega thousands

[@truecockney438]

I thought i knew about owls but i didn’t know this one existed a burrowing owl 🦉 beautiful little bird. Keep up the good work buddy the owls need ya

[@theinvisiblerabbit1998]

Great production value! Great camera work tremendous sound. AAAAA+

[@tanyagentry9754]

one of my favorites! good fire team.

[@tonyradmilovich3154]

I typically am not a fan of shooting other living things but am not an "absolutist" and can understand subsistence hunting and the need for the type ecosystem control that you practice. That said, I have to admit that what you're doing there looks like a helluva lot of fun.

[@jamesspalten5977]

Why don't you book a trip with him. You would have a great time and be doing a big service!+

Otto is one heck of a retriever dog. His energy and enthusiasm is bar none! Excellent video son, lol. I had to add that. I haven't said that word in 27 years, since my Ex kidnapped our son and ran off to Australia. I still miss you son!
