Woodchucks, You Tube Videos (miss the mark)
Quite by accident I ran across 2 videos put out by Universities on Woodchucks, designed to "help" those who have not trapped chucks before. Each missed the mark by a city block by using baits, even pre-baiting, while the last actually said, "bait the trap, but don't set it right up tight to the den as you don't want to force them into the trap." Not only did they miss the point, they actually promote the exact opposite of what is optimum. I guess its one thing not to know what you are doing, but quite another to explain it to the whole world. Yes, bait will catch a chuck, but den setting is infinitely better. It's just too bad that so many see these videos and are led down the wrong path. Again, forget the bait, set the den with a double door trap and nosecone.
