[QUOTE="JCDEERMAN, post: 5618120, member: 5787"] This makes sense to me. We used to allow some friends to Coon hunt our place for years. We had good turkey numbers. They quit hunting and the Turkey population declined drastically. We started trapping and now we seem to have a very healthy population since the drop off in numbers around 2015. Now, how many coons did they kill when they hunted? I have no clue and if it were to make a difference anyway? But I do know we have trapped and killed 133 nest raiders in 2022 and 2023 thus far. Was the timing of these events we experienced a coincidence? Who knows??? But I have to think it’s a major factor into the overall equation of Turkey population loss. [/QUOTE]
