Knew this one was buried somewhere there, but found it by accident on the way back down.

I made up 12 DOC 200 boxes and the very first one I ever set I caught a ferret in it... 30 plus years later I catch my second ferret.. Lady down near the Waimak river has just started trapping and caught 10 since the beginning of March, she I guess is 15 to 20km away.. How does that work ?????
Maybe she has nicer perfume?
Who knows?
I've been doing some data work for local trapping. One view is to let trappers look for traps that have caught barely anything vs high catch nearby traps. Encourage them to stand back and look at the low catching traps. Make sure they are in good order. No sharp wire bits...trap nice and settled on the ground. Is it worth moving them a couple of meters etc.
Next I'm going to look at regional council high res Lidar data that might help classify vegetation and overlay on the map of traps and look for any commonality of where the target species are more frequently caught. The default seems to be a trap every 100m or so but that just goes for a blanket dispersal of traps or thereabouts rather than maybe a higher density of traps in the more preferred habitat of the target animals.
