Title: Cage trapping coyotes.
Post by: Cougartail on September 14, 2023, 09:44:09 PM: I want to attempt to do this. Many have had caught young and sick ones but I want to try for a healthy adult.

My question is can I trap year around? It will be on my property and no bobcats around. Will I be hassled by the WDFW as I want to start in October.

On the trail they use I can see it driving by on the way to work.

Thanks!
