[QUOTE="angus9259, post: 1413393, member: 7398"] Seems like the more I trap and kill, the more that just fill back in from the countryside. Kinda like every time I remove one, I just put up a vacancy sign to the rest of them. Do woodchucks ever come to equilibrium based on their local population? Guess what I'm asking is - by killing them am I aiding in their propagation? Doesn't seem like there's an adequate predator for them either. Coyotes are really the only predator we have around here anymore - which I'm thankful for keeping the mice and rodent populations down - but chucks aren't nocturnal so I don't know that their proverbial paths ever cross.... Besides, if I were a coyote I wouldn't tangle with one of them most likely... Any other tricks? [/QUOTE]
