I got a piece of preperty that I coyote hunt on. Recently, the land owner has given permission to a trapper to get some coyotes. The other day, I went out at first light to call the place. Not takers. However, while walking back, I discovered a couple of dirt hole sets with some fresh catch circles around them. I look over to the side of the traps and discover two dead song dogs laying next to the sets. They were whacked in the head. The pelts were good, no ears cut off (Bounty), and the traps were reset. I cannot understand why the trapper didnt take the dogs. So, I get curious and decide to check out the rest of the property. Sure enough, I find 4 more dirt hole sets all with dead dogs laying next to the sets. None of them had any bad pelts or ears cut off. 2 of the four sets were reset and the other two were left with tripped traps in them. Two days have passed now and the dogs are still laying next to the traps. Why would a trapper put all the time in to make these sets and not take the prize? Please give me some input here. The land owner is kind of pi$$ed because the trapper is leaving the dogs on the property and I told him that I would try and get him an explanation.
