It subsists primarily on prairie dogs whose populations have been greatly reduced over the last 150 years. I am glad you posted on this. A very interesting hunting style.

I believe that around the turn of the last century American farmers used to hire ferreters to clear their barns of rodents.

Not enough jail time for illegally held weapons, and way to many restrictions on legally owned hunting tools. An even bigger problem is we have NO public land. there are the equivelent of state parks, but woebetide anyone fireing so much as an airgun in any of them.<BR/>thanks for reading<BR/>SBWThe Suburban Bushwackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09372690405902840131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8825273392145948457.post-78725610157284801402008-02-08T12:59:00.000+00:002008-02-08T12:59:00.000+00:00Good post!

I would hate to live in England, because of the horrible firearm restrictions, but it may get to that in America whether we like it or not. I am sure there will be trouble if it tried. Too many people like their firearms here to try to take them away. But carry on and I hope you make it to our shores for a good time. If you come alone the wife and I would put you up for a night or two down here in southern Indana. You would lke the ambiance. <BR/><BR/>Michael<BR/>http://wwwstayalive.blogspot.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8825273392145948457.post-2484591868118186732008-02-07T22:53:00.000+00:002008-02-07T22:53:00.000+00:00Well, it looks like that was interesting.
