[FromMyColdDeadHand]

Is there some kind of resource of people with prairie dog problems can connect with shooters? How do you get started in P-dog shooting?

Those with varmint shooting areas hold the area close to the vest.
I just scored an area to shoot till i run out of ammo. The down side.. Private land, limited number of guest and you have to shoot when the owner is on site. Usually 1-2 days per week, as in M-F early to mid morning.

Our prairie dog spot had a mass die off a few years back. Trying to let them come back a bit. Need to drop some Viagra on the mounds.

Shooting a few will actually stimulate reproduction.

Just like with coyotes.

Theres only a dozen or so out there. (40ish acres). Used to have hundreds.

That is a big die off. They should come back pretty quick though. I'd leave them alone for a few years too.

Expect to drive a bit, the place I go was after a lot of asking and ground pounding. Still a 3 hour drive, but I have my own keys to the ranch.

I just did some Antelope hunting in Wyoming on public land near Casper and there were tons of Towns in the oil fields we were hunting. 6 hour drive though.

What do you do with the dead ones when you shoot a bunch? Do people eat them? (Sorry I'm totally unfamiliar with prairie dog hunting, but would love to try it)
