Hailey Hurley I caught three this year from under my deck. I thought there was one. I used a box cage live trap. They like melons. I set the trap about 4 ft from the hole.
Good video but I'm going to try it on a woodchuck things giving me hell it's been eating my garden up left and right all right thanks for the good info have a great night 💯💯💯💯💯😁😁😁😁 I subscribe to Great channel 🔥🔥🔥🔥
No it won't. A locking cable snare prevents the animal from chewing through the snare. If I had to use bank line or paracord to make an emergency snare, I would have to use a pole snare to lift the animal off the ground.
Firearm for a groundhog? Wow. My trap was a bit different than yours. I planted an extra raised bed with lettuce. On my garden raised beds, I surrounded them by chicken wire, but left one open. Hey, sharing. Didn't have to shoot anyone.
With the amount of damage they do and how they multiply it is the only option to kill ‘em! They get into gardens, dig holes all over the yards and farms and can ruin a foundation under homes ,sheds, barns, porches, and fences! Only thing a trap would do is give the problem to someone else!
@@BurningRiverBushcraftkilling them, building our houses one open land which could be home to many species, digging up their homes is not destructive? Aren't we the most destructive, invasive species on the planet? Destroying important forest, killing millions of animals to the point many go extinct, and yet we call some animals pests or destructive for trying to live, we do the same.
Liked for the Dave Canterbury reference!
Great video 👍👍
"like most problems in life it can be solved with a high powered rifle" Lmao
Yeah, me too--- It almost got by me... a BOC (bust out chucklin') !
What about a flat tire?
Sounds very American, don't ya think? :)

Unfortunately you can't shoot a rifle in the city. So there are some things to consider here.
Nice catch Jamie. I'd love to see how you prepare him if you do decide to use him for meat. Take care.
Black Hat Bushcraft there is another video in the works. Thanks for watching.
I am definitely looking forward to seeing it Jamie!
What catch? He showed sweet fuck all. All he did was yap about nothing.
Them woodchucks are smart great ears and sight.
I have atleast 3 on my property. I've set a snare trap so we'll see what happens.
Hailey Hurley good luck.
Burning River Bushcraft Thank you!

Most times snares will strangle rather than live capture.
I haven't found that to be the case, but this definitely needs to be treated as a lethal trap.
Will regular old rope work

@@BurningRiverBushcraft thankyou for the info
That wind is really doing a number on your audio.
I upgraded equipment since then. Thanks for sticking with it.
Well shit… I used mechanics wire this evening. Kinda don’t want to shoot it if I catch it in the a.m
Windscreen!
All I see is hands moving. Please zoom in
Or using terriers
snarns are 1 time deal
Not always.

With your location I think a High Powered rifle would not be a good choice.
A rifle is always my first choice. My barn makes a poor backstop though. Thanks for watching
Your lucky it wasn't a skunk.
That's a different video.

Margaret McKenna I am glad the worked for you. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for your note.
Very inhumane. You could relocate the groundhog in a live trap.
And give the problem to someone else. Yeah, great idea! Groundhogs are destructive rodents that even eat garden veggies.
How are you supposed to eat it if you let it go 🤔

It's illegal to relocate them read the laws
why is that a problem? cant you just leave them? you afraid to live with animals?
They are very destructive to crops and buildings

What damage do they cause to buildings other than burrowing under them? I've heard from someone that they don't actually cause subsidence.
@@kimflores6359it’s in one of our sheds with a dirt floor, it’s piling up dirt in huge mounds in there so it’s almost unusable
Also weakens foundations but a city dweller do goober like you wouldn't know anything about that. Do your research
