Spend An Evening With Newt Sterling



Newt Sterling

The Wildlife Pro Network had a very special guest with us on May 25, 2007. Newt Sterling, a master trapper whose talent and flair for the snare or cable restraint has made him one of best known trappers in North America today. Newt has published many books and videos related to fur trapping and especially on the topic of snaring. You can learn more about Newt at his website at http://www.snareone.com .

I invite everyone interested in trapping and using cable restraints to listen to his podcast we recorded of him at http://www.wildlifepro.net . Newt helps to dis-spell the myth that snares kill and that the use of their better known name "cable restraints" in all wildlife and animal situations. Cable restraints don't hurt animals they restrain them no more then a leash and a collar on a pet.

Should Wildlife Trapping Have a Place in a Christian Environmental Ethic?

Should Wildlife Trapping Have a Place in a Christian Environmental Ethic?

Interview with Stephen VanTassel, 13 May 2008 Animal protectionist groups lobby for the banning of wildlife trapping because of its perceived cruelty and harm to the environment. This paper evaluates those claims and suggests that Christians carefully consider all the data before adopting an anti-trapping stance. Stephen and I got together today for a podcast. Stephen shared his anti Animals rights perspective live with me and now make it available to the wildlife control industry .

From Rats To A Owl Rescue To Safety


Sometimes things seem to be so routine. I have been doing a lot of rodent work lately and getting a call that says they hear something running around in a garage that was left open over night just sounded like a routine rat problem. Well I sure was surprised to find this guy hiding . I netted him, safely put him in a cage and set him free short of getting a few pictures before a beautiful fly off.






This owl was very timid. The owl stood maybe nine inches and if you notice he has tufts for his ears. This turned out to be a Eastern Screech Owl. You can learn more about the Eastern Screech Owl Here.
