You're right it was.Digging alone ain't as much fun as it used to be. -

In the swamps I can use a larger terrier.But when it comes to pest control in my area you need a little one.Took a small bitch an hour of pushing to reach this possum.She entered from the other side of pile.Shes in the picture if you can find her.? -

About 7 or 8 years ago I made a repeat breeding.There was a severely undershot bitch pup who was no bigger than a grasshopper.By 4 weeks of age her litter mates were all using her as a chew toy as she was still mouse size.I put the little pup on another bitch with a younger litter.The little pup was still runty.I tried to gift her to a few friends who dig groundhog and need small ones.They didn't want this ugly undershot runt.So I kept her thinking I could use her for groundhog or muskrat.She grew up to about 13 lbs when fat.I entered her to coon and she did well.Within a few seasons I quickly -

Ive always thought I would like to have a drawing of a black terrier and an otter inside a circle.Reason being it's hard to tell who's chasing who in the swamps. This arrived in mail the other day from a friend. -

As far as I am aware there is no bounty in Al but I think there is in nearby Georgia.

I didn't see it.My father just sent me the picture.They were targeting coyotes that day.Im sure the taxidermist will have his work cut out for him.

Alabama The cat came from West side of the state close to Mississippi.

It's diet is closer to a fox.Mostly squirrels rats rabbits.Ive never heard of any catching chickens as they prefer to stay far away from humans.

I see about one a year in my area and it's generally a fleeting glimpse and I average being out 4 days a week six months a year.Ive seen one this year in the swamps at night while driving the boat.He was on the end of a log trying to catch fish.I tried to get a picture but wasn't fast enough.My brother and father hunt land adjoining a national Forrest that is 144,000 acres.Basically no human contact.My brother filmed two playing under his tree stand last year.The further you get from civilization and into hill country the more your chances of seeing them. Bobcat must be registered here

He shot one ten years ago and had it mounted.He swore he wouldn't shoot another as they are so majestic looking and rare in our area.He said this one is bigger and better looking.He thought it was a large tomcat but turned out a huge queen for our area.22 lbs I wasn't there when it was weighed ? The old man hit it full run as bobcats are not stupid and quickly realized humans were there.He will have it mounted.In our area sportsmanship dictates that you don't kill a bobcat unless you're willing to mount it.

My father and little brother went to their hunting land yesterday which is mostly used for deer and wildhog.Yesterday they used a predator call hoping to shoot some coyotes.My father shot a nice bobcat with a 308

It snowed in parts of Dixie.These are the type of conditions I wanted the bag for. After working a muddy set and crossing beaver ponds my terrier on the ground was muddy and soaked to the bone. I released the fresh dry terrier and put the cold wet one in the bag which was already good and warm.It worked like a charm ? -

In my opinion an otter is stronger and more dangerous than six foot gator and I have wrestled both and both smell about as bad? Beaver are not as strong as otter of same size but beaver get bigger.I don't tail beaver or scruff.I leg em.Their backlegs are the most vulnerable spot in my opinion.If you grab his tail he will shake you all over and can bite you.If you can get a back leg you have got him much same as wild hog.Just keep it lifted high and let his head barely touch.A beavers front legs are similar to a T-Rex arms. Make no mistake though anything that does get in a beavers m -

I took another 15 month old pup out for his first time in the swamp.Watching a young terrier who has seen nothing,enter the earth ,simply because his DNA tells him too, amazes me every time. Just a possum dug shallow but the pup did what he should. Few pics from today I hope y'all enjoy this one.I nearly lost a hand trying to take the picture? Roughly 50 lb beaver . -
