There is no doubt population is down. I’ve been hunting in Kansas since 2004 and places I used to hear 40-50 birds gobbling down a stretch of Neosho river (no joke), I may only hear 3-4 now. I own 3 different pieces up there now.

One of properties I’ve caught/killed close to 40 coons in last 2 years. I’ve seen a drastic increase in population, and have 9 toms and 10 jakes on a piece that was hit or miss a few years ago. It’s only 133 acres.

My theory: frick A RACCOON.

I listened to Emily. Pretty much the same thing that the OP link said. Emily went into control burns more.

You see about 30 under our corn feeders in Kansas. I wonder if corn on the ground for em has made their life easier.
