camoman - are you a hunter? Doesn't sound like it? IF so, why? Is it just the kill or do you consider yourself a game manager? I do my best to keep popualtions in check. I hunt and trap. Where I live there is an overabundance(sp?) of fox, coyotes, deer and many other animals. Trapping is a management tool. Last year in Guilford county there were 47 confirmed cases of rabies, that doesn't count distemper, mange, it als doesn't take into consideration that 2 people were attacked, including one toddler. And there is the explosion of beaver, very destructive animals. I am interested inhearing a response from you and please don't feel that I am attacking you, just trying to learn how you came to these feelings.

RE: TRAPPING PICTURES
The toddler I refered to was bitten repeatedly by a red fox. Again I am not trying to attack you or discredit your thinking, just trying to get you to see the real story. I have released fox from traps, regs. in some counties here in NC, and have watched them trot off. The modern traps are more of an inconvenience to animals than painful. They are designed to hold them, not injure them. I have walked up on animals in traps that were sleeping. So you are all for killing, as long as you don't have to look them in the eye?? Again not attacking but trying to understand. I have had discussions with anti hunting people, so your viewpoint is important to help me the next time I have someone ask or want to argue.

man i dont see how yall can do that, there aint a sportin chance for the animal. IMO people how trap must not know how to hunt at all. I mean $h!t at least when normal people go huntin they give the animal a fair chance. In no means am I against huntin but to me trappin seems unethical, i wouldnt be able to make the poor little fox or the bobcats suffer through that kind of thing. to me that would be like killin my cat or my dog. i dont even shoot foxes or bobcats when i see em in the woods, i just let em walk right on by and enjoy the fact that i got to see somethin that not many others do. Again im not against huntin this is just my opinion about trappin
