Near's I can determine, PA estimates around 20,000 or so 'yotes killed each year via hunting/trapping.

As noted, they are no more common where I hunt, than they were ten years ago. If anything, I'd be inclined to say their numbers may have declined a bit over that period? And local deer numbers were increasing over that same period.

We also still have good fox populations in that area, for those who judge 'yote influence on fox numbers? There are also far more bobcats around there now, than at any time in my memory.

Gonna head out to the range later this week and try some of the 22 ammo I've stumbled onto recently. Winchester 37gr Super Speed and Rem. Golden Bullet "new and improved", for starters.

Probably shake out these rascals in the RAR and the CZ455.


If three or more people think you're a dimwit, chances are at least one of them is right.
