I know Missouri Dept of Conservation stocked them years ago. What a “success story!”
Right up there with stocking coyotes..
And mountain lions. But they will deny that. Augie, we found mountain lion tracks in the fresh snow down by the creek at our place Christmas 2017. We raise sheep so you can guess how we felt about that.

anybody ever tried a thermal/night scope on river otter in pond?
i hear they are more active at night....
i wonder how long I'd have to sit on my back porch in darkness before I'd see one on a thermal scope?
Fishing has never been about the fish....

Living on the edge of a major river bottom, full of bayou and swamp, we have several otters in the area. I just keep hoping their food supply keeps them in the wild and they dont come looking at my pond. Hopefully the smell of dog will deter them from wanting to investigate. With the dogs inside at night, they could wreak havoc in my little pond in no time at all.

There have been multiple lion encounters in our neighborhood over the past five years. Three separate occasions I've seen a lion on my property in broad daylight. I don't go in the woods anymore without my little friend on my hip.
