Caged a bobcat

[Humptulips]

Was that the same cat used for the bobcat demo in  the trappers ed class on Saturday? Just wondering.

Yes

Nice! Is there something extra a trapper has to do, to be able to go out on nuisance calls? Not trying to hijack thread, or your business, but since I have said I have a trappers license I have had several friends want me to come by and get rid of a possum, coon, etc that is given them trouble.

It was  a pretty cat!

The short of it is no as long as it is during trapping season.
You are not really supposed to be able to charge for trapping without the NWCO permit but I suppose if someone gave you gas money who would know.

You need the NWCO permit to trap outside the trapping season.

I believe a person can apply for a permit to remove a nuisance animal anytime of the year, with conditions. Cant charge unless you are a NWCO, but anyone can still get a permit to remove the problem animal, correct me if I have this wrong Bruce.

Thanks for the info guys.

You only need a permit for bodygripping traps. You don'y need anything except your trapping license for cage traps.

I was talking about removing a problem animal when the normal trapping season is closed.

OK, That would probably be correct given that the property owner can do it without a permit.
