Catmendo Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Another day and yet another "13 lined" ground squirrel! I'm know up to #36 as far a live trapping these little hole diggers! It will be interesting to see where the total tally will be by fall! This is a portrait of one of the many Killdeer fledglings which are now able to take flight when called upon. These horses grabbed my attention as I drove by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayinMN Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 My dad built me a live trap when I was a kid and I set it out at our cabin. I started catching a chipmunk every 5-10 minutes. It took me a while but I realized I was catching the same chipmunk and he was getting a lot of free meals out of it... Oh well, I had fun playing with that trap. Are you sure they are all different squirrels? I have seen gray squirrels in town with spray painted tails, I think someone was doing and experiment....

Catmendo Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share Posted August 10, 2009 Yes Jay they're all individuals! Once captured I haul them a fare distance down the road (1/2 mile) and then turn them free! I spoke with my nieghbour the other day and he claims that they're getting over run with them! My response...you don't say! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
