B.C. couple calls for ban on commercial trapping on public land after death of dog
A couple from Radium Hot Springs, B.C., say they didn’t know traplines were a risk on public land in Canada until their husky Moon died in a baited trap near their home earlier this month.

Digging through photos and came across some old slow-mo videos of how quickly (and powerfully) soft catch foothold traps close. Used these to capture pelicans for GPS tagging in Utah!

Got my fingers caught in them enough times to prove they're still quite gentle, despite the look of them

#trapping is inhumane. It betrays the respect, coexistence, and compassion we owe the wild—something Indigenous peoples have always understood—because #wolves are family, and we share this home with them, and we need #wildlife to thrive for our own survival too.
Every year in the U.S., millions of wild animals suffer in cruel #traps : steel-jaw leghold traps, snares, cable restraints, body-grip (#Conibear ) traps, and glue traps.

Most of the projects are structured as trusts, but one interested project is a for profit business - albeit with the main focus on restoration.

They are getting revenue via the ETS and biodiversity credits.

Their activity is almost exclusively #trapping pests focused on possums, feral cats (huge problem), rats and mustelids, with hunting of pigs, goats and deer (ground and aerial).

They are seeing great results with vegetation bouncing back and a dramatic increase of birds. Including the return and successful breeding pairs of robins.

It is that time of the year where I start finding feijoa partly eaten before me. I'm going to have to get a trap, but to help me out a bit getting the right one .. .. rat, possum, or hedgehog?

A rippled stainless steel bench top with a red/silver pen (for scale) and a textured green feijoa. The feijoa is sort of cylindrical with rounded ends and some brown crescent marks looking like it has had some teeth bitten into it.

With only 15 breeding pairs of #wolves left, Oregon's wolf population can't afford to lose the Frazier Mountain Pack. This pair of proven parents and their growing pups are a vital ray of hope for the future of their #species.

Tell #ODFW: Stop shooting wolves.

Wolves need our help now more than ever. While the Endangered Species Act (#ESA) protects wolves across most of the continental U.S. from #hunting, #trapping and more,
