Thanks for playing my song at the end! Much appreciated.
I think you used every word that ends in -ella in that song... probably hard to rhyme rinella ...
@@flatsquatch pretty much. I actually learned lamella the day I wrote the song which I thought was fitting since it works with the topics on the podcast.
That song was killer
@@mattbrowder669 thanks man I appreciate it! I have a lyric video on here plus it's on all major streaming platforms.
Love the song
I can listen to Carmen speak about Lynx for hours, great episode!
I got tiered of it. It was more like an interview than a podcast . Interesting for sure but all those others in attendance had no input .
Back to classic informative hunting/conservation based content! Thank you to the Meateater team.
I agree. Interviewing country musicians doesn't interest me.
@@jdy5556was it super painful to skip that episode? did the country musicians murder your family??
Does me@@jdy5556
Barred owls and northern spotted are in the Strix family and have been known to cross breed. Barred are territorial and can triple brood, have a wider diet range and are bigger. I am guessing what we will end up with is a barred owl population with some spotted dna
Carmen is incredibly adorable, while also being a badass trapper scientist. I was mesmerized.
Steve's home state of Michigan has Canada Lynx, but likely no breeding population at this time. A Lynx was even caught in the Thumb of the Lower Peninsula only 4 or 5 years ago! There has been Lynx caught in the U.P. several times in the last 20 years. There was also a Wolverine in the Thumb for several years. It was treed by Coyote hounds in 2004 and verified by a DNR biologist who was called and saw the animal. It was documented living there ( trail cam photos in the Minden Bog) for 3-4 years afterwards) The Minden Bog Wolverine was found dead eventually, and the DNR had is mounted. As another FYI, until the Thumb Lynx lately, the last verified Lower Peninsula Lynx were 4 Lynx trapped east of Grayling along the Au Sable River in 1917 (Crawford Co.). Woodland Caribou hung on in Michigan until the Isle Royal population disappeared in 1919. Some sources say there were Caribou in the eastern U.P. until the early 1920's.
I think I would rate it more like an 8. Thoroughly enjoyed the show.
Damn Steve with the SWAGGER in this episode
Colville Tribes in Eastern Washington has been releasing lynx on the kettle range, NE corner of our reservation. I believe they have released 10 or so not 100% on number its been a minute but they are releasing lynx from Canada
Interesting, I didn't know that.
@@chickenfishhybrid44 the last couple years, lynx and salmon we have been releasing
Years ago, snowmobiling into a back lake for speckled trout, I came across hare tracks. Soon, a set of Linc tracks showed up. Sure enough about 50 ,60 yards further you could clearly see the catch. Then a little off to the side an area where the Linc had breakfast. Without seeing either critter you could easily see what happened. So cool!!
Great show love the song at the end
Steve, in diving this symbol means okay 👌🏻 thumbs up means to surface👍🏼 I hope divers you go out with are using proper hand symbols
F&T is great. They give ya free gifts all the time!
Nokian or blizzak by Bridgestone tires twice as safe than whatever y’all are riding in the snow.
Good looking and smart perfect
A catamount was a booger in the south ...
Introducing all hosts + guests in the beginning of the show would be cool
Have you never watched an episode?
@@anthonyraye5831 have you? He literally didn’t even do it on THIS episode so wtf are you taking about
@@tcolley that’s the point big guy….
@@tcolley he quite literally did
Based on their reactions, that young lady needs to charge way more.
I think she’s taken but I have an actual crush on Corynn.. so eff off Steve! lol… all love and laughs.. not joking about my crush on Corynn tho lol
I think the next few winners of Meateater trivia should make the donations to Home Range research.
Refreshing to actually hear a bio talking about fire management for conservation other than just poo poo the impact of people.
This was one of the most intriguing episodes I have ever listened to! Carmen is so awesome.
42:04 FYI we can spear Northern Pike on Lake Superior in Wisconsin. Just not most other lakes.
Fun fact, lynx are found in Michigan's upper peninsula and are considered an endangered species by the state
Great show
As a Washingtonian I love it when Carmen comes on. We need all the help we can get since our state bases all of their regulations on politics not biology.
I miss the old witty podcast titles bames.
“Arena of Consequences” would be this one🤌
@MeatEater what is the source of the Irish author's quote that Steve was referencing about babies? It sounded liek something I'd like to read. Thanks
get some "skunk fusion" skunk scent its in two parts and does not smell until its mixed. it used to be called "skunk skreen"
Steve, You had two very passionate women on your podcast that truly believe in their outdoor business "Women in Wildlife". We all learned more about these Lynx.... and being from Minnesota, it was very cool that our Women's Pro Basketball team is named after a cool animal. Skillet Trap a Cat...
The easiest way to differentiate between lynx and bobcat is the ears..
It's pretty easy to tell the difference between a Northern Pike and a Muskie most of the time. If you can't tell what it is don't make the shot. I'm not for or against it just saying.
Very useful knowing that black tail on bottom is a lynx..the amount of people i know that say "have seen a Lynx" is insanity.. Considering here in Antrim county Mi the amount of Bobcat is uncountable.
Creating the ideal Lynx habitat through forest fire management has some parallels with how in Scotland the moors are burned for grouse management. By burning they create a patchwork of young, mature and old growth heather for the birds for their different needs during the year. Great show greetings from Europe.
35:03 like the OK hand sign? Pretty sure that wasnt fox though
I can’t believe that Steve just made a Jerry Clower reference one of my all-time favorite comedians
Listen to the bear grease podcast on it.
Episode 46
Big issue with recent graduates going into biology is the pay (at least from what I’ve experienced). I was offered a job for 40k as a research biologist through the state and a few other nonprofits but 80k from a manufacturing plant for doing water treatment work. I have all the skills (trapping, tracking, outdoor survival skills that were mentioned) but they pay just isn’t there unfortunately
I agree. That is an unfortunate position. Take my advice and if possible, take less money to do the job you would really love. I've spent a lifetime doing a job I hate because it was more lucrative. I'd have rather been cutting grass. You might thank this old man later in life.
@@williamrickmond9673 I think that is my plan here in the near future. Just recently got all my student loans paid off and truck paid off so hopefully now save up enough to be able to take a job I like for less.
The irony of France opposing the Iraq war and then being a big driving force to invade Libya is something. Its interesting how people seem to forget or dont know Frances role in making that happen.
Seems to just get lumped in with bad US decisions in the Middle East.
To be fair im only fluent in English so i dont know what im missing around that discussion in French or other languages for that matter.
Minnesota has cougars, bobcats and lynx. Or at least passing through. We have foxes 🦊 too, even more after a six pack of Grain Belt Premium.
Everyone in the US has foxes. That is a funny joke, though.
My wife and I believe we heard a lynx calling in the Cispus valley not far from Goat Rocks wilderness in 2020. Sounded like a demon barfing. Very distinctly different sounds from lion or bobcat. At least from anything we can find. Pretty wild country right there.
The Ornithological Union also renamed the Gray Jay to Gray Jay of Canada, simply to get it designated the national bird of Canada, and make more funding available for studing the species. This was done, essentially, to benefit two researchers who's niche is Gray Jays. The Society of Canadian Ornithologists designated Gray Jays as the national bird, despite informal polls finding that 60% of Canadians prefered the Common Loon.
I'm in the BC interior, caribou region. We have lynx from here to the Yukon. I'm not sure of South west to the border but definitely south east to the border you will find lynx as well. I've shot 2, and seen lots. They don't seem to be afraid of people. The Steve describe his experience, is basically to a T of ally lynx encounters. Many were from a truck.
We've got em in the Kootenays. I've only ever seen one though, and it was crossing a highway. I've seen 4 bobcats and 5 cougars, so seems like Lynx are the fewest and farthest between of the cats down this way.
Brooklyn speaks just like Bear John!
This was great! Captivated with seeing things through her story and her expression of her journey.
Ma'am really said "beatin cheeks" instead of beating feet.. 😅😅😅
my son got a great video of two Lynx screeching, was really cool, here in Ontario
hundred thousand acres? maybe 3 or 4?
Great guest love Jerry thanks
I have a theory about big cats. I think they are kind of like quail and are actually very social and group sparsely together with loose territories. I think of it like a cat house with the rooms being the territories. Also they set up these groups away from other cat groups such as lions or area frequented by XYZ competing predator or pressure. I have developed this theory through my few years of trapping. Does this theory hold merit....
In Michigan's U.P., snowshoe hares have all but disappeared due to over browse of the whitetail population. Speculatively, this is a result of the human population transitioning from small dairy farms to corporate crop farming. Presumably, if there were Lynx around 50 years ago, we don't have them anymore.
Some good content here. The glycerin trick to keep lures from freezing has been awesome for years.
We have bobcat hunting and trapping here but living in a lynx protected area we have special items to use so we don’t accidentally catch a lynx.
Great to hear the trapping stories. Snowshoe hares are a nuisance on my sets like that as they seem to like to hide in those tunnel type sets.
Fisher being my personal favorite to trap and to learn their behavior.
A bear will consider honey a bonus, but the reason they'll rip your apiary to shreds is to get at the larvae, not the honey.
I will die on that hill because keeping bees is difficult enough thanks to the wild amount of incorrect information swiming around anything to do with the practice.
In Maine, they are such specialists, when the snowshoe hares are on a down cycle, the # of Lynx allowed in the season drops as well. So its a completely mutualistic relationship.
Steve... Cedar creek??? Remember?
Eastern greys we got a few
Saw a bobcat from the treestand eat a squirrel kill right in front of me.
All it left behind was the tail and back hams. Ate everything else.
I can see the look in the young girls face 'the heck with boiling dead deer skulls, im gonna trap lynx with a supermodel' 😊
Are you influencers going to have a podcast about the ballot initiative in Colorado to ban lion hunting and try to get us all on the same page to fight this
Jerry Clower is my son,s favorite, he listens to a tape whenever he makes the trip from NC to my house to come to deer hunt every fall.
the voyageurs wolf project has numerous lynx on trail cams
If our trap catches a lynx we should be able to name it
Katie probably hates it when she’s on lol
Steve! Shut up and let folks answer a question.
we got lots in Northern Ontario ( Lynx)
Hope yall arent still giving Patagonia your money as they are the enemy.
Lost me at Washington’s changing climate I’ll be honest.
Would be nice to hear from others in this is cast . Interesting stuff but the other poor bastards just sat bored 😴. Got to the point I was sick of hearing her voice . Needed to be broken up a bit .
maine isn't the farthest north just to point out speaking of the lower 48
Yay a show with a real guest and topic instead of “Steve chats with the big bug hunting crew boys about their new podcast god guns and big bucks”
Not particularly what I'm interested in on this channel either. At the same time, this isn't NPR, cope.
My favorite episode!
