Considering traps can be anywhere and everywhere including illegally on =
the property of unsuspecting property owners and mere meters from =
well-trodden public trails (search =E2=80=9Cno traps on trails=E2=80=9D =
for many examples of this problem), you=E2=80=99re saying family pets =
shouldn=E2=80=99t be in the woods. I think it would make far more sense =
to ban lethal traps.  And we=E2=80=99re heading in the direction at a =
donkey-slow pace.

Well Keith=20

Family pets shouldn't be where trappers can catch them.=20

Trappers are definitely helping out the birds if they do find one in a =
snare.=20

Enjoy the winter=20

Predators like Bobcats always produce more young than the range can =
carry Keith.=20

Every few winters a harsh one will come along and thin out the =
population.=20

Natures way of ensure the survival of the species.=20

Trappers help Nature out by harvesting the surplus before the harsh =
weather arrives.=20

Keeps the population numbers steady over a period of time.=20

Same with deer and lots of other animals. Mice love it though and=20

make love in safety all winter!=20

Enjoy the winter=20
