    Our Martin go for a lot more than 22 FRNs per pelt... If it is a Prime Pelt, try 10 Times that... AlaskaChick makes her GrandMa Money every winter, trapping these little cuties... Since we are now “Elderly” our State gives us a Lifetime Hunting Fishing & Trapping License, as well as Free Vehicle License Tabs... What a deal....

    It's super simple. Line up the crosshairs just about anywhere on the head, take a deep breath and as you slowly exhale, smoothly squeeze the trigger until it goes bang. Easy peasy.

    Seriously, it's a varmint and a pest and they breed like rabbits, no matter how cute they are.

    Owned ferrets and while I loved them to pieces and they are just so damned adorable, I would have zero compunction offing a wild one.

    Rabbits don't seem all that bad , till there in your garden, eaten the wiring out of your truck, and so on.
    Animals get bored and get into things out of curiosity and seeking food.
    Start feeding a raccoon and then go on vacation. they will tear open the roof get in and have a hay day .
    IF you feel the compulsion to feed wild animals, do it a long way from your home .

    Good reason for a .17HRM, but only headshots! Else it gets messy!
