This year you will have to use a crossbow, rifle or shotgun to take marten or mink. I 'm not sure if you have to shoot them coming in to the trap or when they are leaving. Lol, can't even use my handgun eh?

junk fur? 800-900 mink possible? rats in them any hundreds? best freaking coon in the world best beaver- plus cats, otter, martin and fisher. shut off WY to all non residents for eveything- fishing, hunting, trapping. after all, don't want us taking your good fur.... Never said MN had junk fur, there is another state I can't trap but can trap here on a limited basis, you trapped yotes here I have family in a few different places in MN would like to trap a couple yotes or coons even but no dice

lol, the best cure is wyoming keep all their cattle and oil and coal and methane in state, no exports at all. and no tourists or trappers either one allowed in either. same for nevada, shut vegas righht down to non residents. and don`t allow anyone not born in nevada to buy or sell real estate, wink wink, lol!!! or trap cats, and no exporting of cats eirther, i.e. no non resident fur buyers liscenses! heck, lets split up the u.s. into 50 new countries, a couple of those girly men states can stay togather as one.

I don't mind NR trappers coming to KS in fact have helped quite a few get ground etc.
but it does piss me off that NV residents can come here and trap cats but i can't go to NV to trap cats and i wouldn't anyway its the principle of the matter.
I wouldn't speak to fast Danny I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a reciprocal law and or changes to cats coming.
Talking about leaving seed........I left a female on a property with deer stands on every tree. stopped in and saw the farmer told him how many skunks and coyotes i got off him for his bird population. he has chukars etc on the place.
Asked the son in law how many cats he saw there this year sitting in his many deer stands as i harvested a female and got a tom on the neighbors. he said he hadn't seen a cat at all deer hunting and if he would of he would have shot every one of them. this coming from a guy that will never buy a furharvester license.
Made my point about leaving seed. I shouldn't have left that female cat there now it'll be gone come aug or whenever bow season starts along with the kittens.

Interesting because NV is dependent on CA for almost 100% of it's gas and diesel. CA produces about 40% of the petroleum refined in state with it's 46,000 producing oil wells, with 20% coming from AK and the other 40% from various foreign sources.
OR is dependent on CA and WA for it's refined fuels as well.
Lucky for NV that they've got gambling, hookers and strippers. But with every tribe in CA firing up their new casinos that's gotta be cutting into NV's bottom line.

But do any NV trappers trap cats in KS ? I've never heard of one yet.
By and large the ability for eastern guys to trap cats out here is pretty much just a gift to them, since the reciprocity only goes one way.
Face facts, if NV allowed NR's they'd be there in numbers. As they were in CA and AZ in the 80's.
Joel would need a whole lotta sugar to sprinkled all over him to get him to support NR cat/gf take. And he'd need to use some of that to book his flight to South America to escape the resident lynch mob. ;D

Yancy, for Pete's sake stop spouting off all those place names. Not only are you giving me more gray hairs, but my brother's heading out for a week and I'm stuck here feeding cattle. Thinking about that great country too much can cause awful black moods. All I've really got to add to this topic is I thought this was the UNITED States of America! I guess that's only true till everybody starts protecting their own sweetheart deal. Almost any arguement justifying state to state discrimination can be rebutted intelligently due to the true interdependence of all US citizens. This awfully independent individual is thankful for that fact.

And the resident wildlife on those Federal lands is owned by the State, which has the right to manage those resource and decide on who has access to them.
None of your trapping license fee goes to the Feds, it stays with that state. There is no Federal furbearer stamp like the federal duck stamp. And Pittman-Robertson funds were used to re-establish bobcat populations in the East and Midwest, but not in the West and the bobcat management surveys are jointly funded by P-R and state funds.
Anybody can come to the BLM or USFS lands in NV and sunbathe naked all they want, many do, but if your gonna hunt or trap you need to do so under NV's regulations.

Gambling ain't the same unless you can go somewhere else to do it. Kinda like the forbidden fruit.
I walk past slot machines in the grocery store and don't even notice them. It is kind of like a new discovery when someone comes in from another state
