Tim:

Sorry.....I have NO IDEA what you're talking about. If you're talking about this (below).....it was written in response to a different thread where people were telling others to not clean up their kills for photos and to be proud of not siphoning out potentially abrasive images before sharing them with the general public. I think my follow up paragraph states my feelings on trapping JUST FINE.

Heck NO! Trappers be proud!! You aren't doing anything illegal. Smear some blood on the animals and ride around town with your animals still in the traps....decorating your truck. Tell everyone that asks how it almost chewed its' own leg off before you got up to it and pierced its skull with your .22. Good SHOT!!

The aforementioned was stated in jest.....kind of. I won't get into my thoughts on trapping.....but will add that it's legal....and that trappers (the ones I know) are pretty careful in how they allow the public to see what they do. They do a good job of flying under the radar.....and we'd do well to follow their lead.
