Eight Pointer
It would essentially be "pest" removal services I think? I keep seeing folks posting about it and not wanting their pets to get eaten and I'm wondering if I could have a "side gig"
Certain furbearers you can transport live with your trapping licenses.You can run into issues inside city limits because u can’t discharge a firearm inside most city limits so u have to dispatch the animal another way u can’t transport live wildlife without a permit and you open yourself up to a huge civil liability when fluffy the neighbors cat gets caught in you trap and the owners want money for vet bills that why the state has a damage control agent program to help u understand everything
It is risky even if there are no local laws prohibiting it. If discharging a firearm was the only issue, that is easy enough to overcome.
The biggest issue is the extreme risk and likelihood of catching a non target (read someones pet) and ending up on the evening news. The fact that the non target critters owner was not following the local leash law does not change the negative reporting that will occur when the wrong animal is caught. Neither will the fact that modern traps are not the monsters that the animal rights folks claim them to be. The trapping community does not need the negative press of catching domestics.
If the offending wild critters can be caught in a cage trap, the risk of a negative situation is greatly reduced. But good luck trying to get Wiley to go in a cage.
^^^^^^^^I think that is against the law.
Ah yes I forgot nccatfish always knows more than everyone good job thanks for the correction
