rooks cause untold damage to standing crops when they are nearly ripe they use their wings and flatten the cerals and eat the soft seed heads of the barley, also they are forever scratting in the silage that has been layed down for the cattle in the sheds and makes more work for the farmer who has to sweep the silage back into reach .they are in plauge numbers around the borders of scotland

YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT THE POSSIBILITY OF INJURY EVERY TIME YOUR DOG GOES OUT THE DOOR HUNTING.

I hope its the first of many for you

The same can be said for their coyote and fox snares, they use aircraft cable (we do too sometimes) but we have at our disposal bowden cable which is much stiffer and stronger and holds a loop far better when loaded. I guess they simply use what is at their disposal. H sorry to disagree here but since i use these materials evey day,aircraft cable holds a better loop and runs faster than bowden cable not the other way round. . this type of well loaded 7x7 aircraft cable snare is what we have been using for years .bowden cable with the abc locks dont run as smooth or as fast

set your traps in the mouth of the holes then you wont need to carry any cages at all if there are a lot of holes fill a few of the entrances in and set traps in the remaing holes if the following day some of the holes have been cleared out that you filled set your traps in them because they are active entry exit points just a sugestion for you to ponder
