You have really taken the time to study these nasty little things havent ya.I see the mounds all over the place but I havent had the chance to get a shot at one yet.I saw them almost every day last summer going to work.I would see pocket gophers and thirteen lined ground squirrels on this cleache road with sunflowers on both sides of the road.Im not sure why there were so many in that one area but there were.I saw one last spring when I was shootin prairie dogs and I never got a shot at it cause it was haulin some tail down a cattle trail and I never saw it again.I also used to see them quite a bit when I would ride the tractor with my uncle when he farmed.Especially when they were putting anhydrous ammonia on the fields.The smell of it would force the mice,rats,and pocket gophers out into the open and the hawks apparently knew it cause it seemed like they fallowed the tractor and waited until a rodent came up and it would handle the rest.If I ever have a problem gopher I will know how to get rid of it now Thanks. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif
