Gopher hunting??? What do you do with them?

Actually our most northern first nations people think they are quite a delicacy....................the Vuntut Gwitchen. So actually do most of the elderly first nations people in the Yukon. We don't have that many areas of good habitat for them, but where they do occur they have been a favored food source for the local indigenous peoples for centuries.
Me, I shoot them for fun and to watch that 22-250 red mist settle on the wind............

And the Inuit consider whale blubber a delicacy........doesn't mean it is?! Wasn't it Crocodile Dundee who said "it taste's like #### but you can survive on it" :p
 
They make good fertilizer!? Or you could pile them up and wait for coyotes and then get those pelts and then pile up those carcasses for wolves and then get those pelts and then take THOSE carcasses and pile them up for cougars but after that I wouldn't shoot majestic cougars. Leave them to roam free in the woods or dark corners of night clubs.
 
During the depression people ate them, as well as certain places in Sask. (wife unknowingly had it once(canned), but that's another story.)

They make good crow bait, and gopher bait for that matter. Wanna shoot lot's of gophers, get good at whistling like a gopher. ;)
