I'm a little too young to remember the days when bounty's were paid for shooting hawks and fox pelts brought good money. These were the days before we had coyotes in Pa.
From what I understand, those were the days of bountiful small game, however, modern farming has also had an affect on small game. Just my opinion, coyotes are hard on deer, woodchucks, and small game, that is why I will shoot them every chance I have. I also believe if we were allowed to keep the number of hawks in check, our small game would be better off, but not to the level it once may have been. I know this may seem like swearing to some, but to be real honest, we have way too many hawks, I remember 30 years back, it was great to see a red tail hawk, but anymore, we have way too many. Only my opinions, Stan Hoover |

Sorry. My question was rhetorical ((of a question) asked in order to produce an effect or to make a statement rather than to elicit information.), but Dean's response makes it still a good question to ask.
Thanks, Dean. Quote:
