I still don't know how I've never seen on in person. In the summer/fall I hear them all around my house and my cat even got taken from my front yard once. All the time I've spent wandering around town and the woods around my place hammered with just one or two other buddies I would've thought we'd run into them at some point.Have one .
There considered vermin and open all year round to shoot them on your property. I almost became dinner one night putting my trailer away in storage at a local field, they had me surrounded and had to get into my truck and scare them off lol.
