Got your attention now! The Minnesota DNR is catching alot of flak on this and people with dogs want the 220's Banned on land. So there goes the snaring on land also. There are DNR input meetings set up to here our opinions on this. To find a input meeting near you go to the MN DNR website under news releases and you will find the dates and places where they are being held. So get off your duff and voice your opinion, otherwise the DNR will listen to the ALMIGHTY WEEKEND WARRIOR BIRDHUNTER and they will get their way. Its time to act NOW! Later D.C. This was Posted in Feb, 2007 so don't get nervous!

I wish a few people would be more careful when setting 220's

Our problems generally come from bad location choice. Lots of new trappers out there due to the price forecast. A couple of old bone heads too.

Educate others for our own good. Please!

Any location that could remotely possibly catch a pet should be avoided like the plague. even if the pet doesn't belong there.

You can catch the same target animal farther from the road, trail or culvert.

pets won't go into the traps if people would use fruits instead of meats.

My guess would be cubbies with a fishy lure or meaty lure for coons and bobcat. Dogs sometimes stick their heads in there. Coyotes typically won't, being suspicious, but dogs don't have that suspicious nature.

I live on the Leach Lake Indian Reservation, and I have found several 330's on dry land. When I questioned my local C.O. on this he stated the traps belonged to Natives, whom can legally set 330's on dry land also within small game refuges. Where I am not allowed to trap.
