WMA Furbearer

[garret01]

Howdy Folks,

How reliable are the ODWC comments on the WMA pages when they say "furbearers are abundant"? I have a couple WMA spots I would like to sit on around the Tulsa area but don't want to sit somewhere that has Zero bobcats or coyote.

So, two questions...

1.) Has anyone taken bobcats around the Tulsa area

2.) For a Bobcat, I will stuff and mount a good looking one, but what if I take a coyote. I'm not going to stuff and mount a coyote. Do you just leave them where they fall?

Thanks folks!

I've found those statements to be rather unreliable. "Are abundant but highly sought after" typically means they don't know.

Cats are everywhere and their populations are usually underestimated. Grab your shotgun and go find the thickest, nastiest cover you can find along a water source and give it a try.

Saw a bobcat dead in the road around 91st and memorial in tulsa not too long ago. The wma I hunt near Tulsa has a good many cats and yotes on it.

Yep give it a good try. Okie4570 has a pretty good tip.

What about the yotes boys? Shoot em and leave em? Ethical?
