Our local game biologist told me that we need to eliminate a number of coons, skunks, possum,etc. as they are nest destroyers and are one of the reasons for low quail numbers. My trail cameras indicate a LARGE number of coons as well as possums. Per the KDWP it is legal to kill them as a prediator as long as you don't do anything w/ them afterwards, such as selling the hide. I have not had the opprotunity yet, but given it I will take them out.
