[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2608316, member: 91783"] I'm a firm believer in keeping a log on my hunting , calling and trapping . I have found over the years that it has helped me a bunch I can go back and find similar situations and see what I did to resolve them . I also then knew what was used at what location , at what time of the year as well as what the weather was like at the time . I have noticed that just the act of writing it down helps me with my recall . By doing this I have made some interesting observations . Like when the coyote numbers are higher they have fewer pups , we all know this but why is it happening . By looking at all of the things written down I noticed that there was less food base for each coyote they were compressed into smaller areas and they didn't have the layers of fat stored up like in the years where the numbers were lower . The health of the female wasn't as good thus I figured they didn't have larger litters . I also noticed that in years when the coyote numbers were lower but the prey base was lower they didn't have large litters . The coyote didn't have the stored layers of fat , they weren't as healthy either so I figured that they weren't as healthy and weren't able to have or keep larger litters of pups . This all applied to the other animals , bobcats , fox and even the rabbit populations . Maybe a thought that will be of use to someone else and that has been the goal of this post and I hope to continue to be able to help others in their quest of the predators . :) [/QUOTE]
