RPIBuckHunter Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Got an annoying mole in the backyard that would be good target practice with the bow, but don't want to do it if it's against the law...any advice on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-Man Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 500' from a building unless you own it or have permission of the owner, check you local ordanence on discharge of firearms within your town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPIBuckHunter Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 Yup, I know all about the discharging laws, more concerned with the legality of actually killing the damn thing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYBuckHunter Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Theres no season on moles, shoot away if its legal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Single_shot Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 The couple I have living near the house gives my cat a good workout this time of year when I let him out in the yard. If there's no season on them,and they are'nt covered in the hunting laws book,they may be protected.....no,i'm not serious. Tastes like chicken.

catskillkid Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 My cat bought a small game mole hunting license last week. Now she is ready to go. But she does not know what the daily or season limit is. Anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ny hunter Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I say shoot it with a pellet gun,you might break an arrow if you use your bow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wooly Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 That's funny! I found this one the other day that a fox dug out....even he wouldn't eat it. I forget the name of this brand of mole off the top of my head, but this is the first one of them I've ever seen here. Check out the snout on this lil dude,lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chevy Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Nasty looking thing. Watch out though, if the DEC thinks they can sell extra tags they will make a new season for moles and we will fight about which existing season it gets shoved into.

FULLDRAWXX75 Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I could not find anything in DEC's rules/laws that stated it is illegal to remove moles. I did learn a few things about removal/trapping of nuisance animals/birds though. FDXX75 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pygmy Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Star nosed mole.. I used to have a female Lab who was very good at digging them out.. Nothing eats them, tho..I understand that they, along with shrews are poisonous, and dogs and cays instinctively know not to eat them... Or perhaps they just don't TASTE very good... : ...

Robinson446 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 when it comes to those little critters like moles and woodchucks, I see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. Another words do it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
