It's been many years but as a kid I shot alot of badgers from pastures in NorthEast South Dakota on relative's and friends farms. Back there instead of prairie dogs they were after the plentiful "gophers". I was using a .22 with LR hollowpoints for them.I'm looking for a place that has a decent badger population. My son is 9 and is deadset on shooting one. I've seen a few out towards Swan Falls, but only because they ran across the road. Any suggestions for areas in southwest Idaho would be appreciated, as would any other tips. Thanks.
this was in the time South Dakota paid a bounty for predators.
