Blackie, you crack me up. Do game wardens in NY actually write citations for things like a guy trapping coons that are ruining his garden? Is that the kind of thing you all consider "poaching" up there?
If so, I can see why you're always pissed off at the world. I would be too if I lived in a place like that.
And PS, trapping a coon for the purpose of training a dog is much more than "not entirely legit," it's a blatant mis-use of the license. The license doesn't allow you to trap healthy animals for your own purposes, it allows you to care for injured animals until they can be released.
I guess it's ok for certain people to break certain laws under certain circumstances though ?
