Small game hunters in Pa are practically non-existent. Most of them hit the GL for stocked Pheasants. It's all Turkey and Deer for the most part.

It's the Birds that are crashing.

Without trapping of the foxes, coyotes on the upswing and the increased numbers of raptors, the white-footed mouse and chipmunks that carry Lyme should be hurting. Doesn't seem to be the case.









Around here it seems like the beaver population is exploding. Five years ago I can think of one or two dams locally. But I can think of 8-9 new ones within 5 miles or so of the farm.
