I just watched a short segment on a trapper that was on Channel 12 News, it says that they will be following the trapper through the next couple of weeks. Also explains that coyotes are spreading and so on and that the control of these particular animals helps the growth of other animals. I'm excited to see which way this trapping segment goes.

Not sure at all, it was the 11 o' clock news, so I'm not sure if it will be on the 11 o' clock news all the time or if it will be on the 6 o' clock news as well. Also not sure if it will be everyday, or if it will be just on sunday nights? Hopefully its everyday because they said they were going to follow him on his line so...

WOW, nice to hear a more positive spin to trapping on TV. Wish I could see that.

is it just me or do they seem to be misleading the people by saying they are "tracking" instead of trapping?

They had it right (no tracking) in the actual clip you can watch on that site. I think he kept saying trapping and not tracking during that report.

I know the host of this small segment and for sure he is saying trapping and not tracking. Who ever posted the story on abc 12 mis-worded the title. The segment is on every Sunday night during the 11:00pm Channel 12 News. Also all the video reports are posted every week on abc12.com under features and the segment is called "On the Trail."

Watch those backrounds when you are broadcasting from your "secret spot" 125 yards from the road. LOL

Nice report.
