Badgers have delayed implantation also fish. so do pine martens mating in july or august the female does not becomes pregnant until about january a litter averages about three young and are born in march or april
-
this one was very placid it didnt hiss spit or wale you can see in the pic used a coat hanger to lift the trap as the handle is bust wouldnt put my fingers anywhere near them sharp teeth this martin is quite small and proberbly a female they go a lot bigger than that It was probably placid because you had caught it before and it just fancied another runn in the car :whistle: i never thought of that ricky

im pretty sure they dont find there way back becauce they are released 7/8 miles away there is thousands of acres of plantation around us which holds good numbers of martins the only problem my mate has with keeping bees is the martins cheers bb
-
yes juckler had trouble with badgers breaking into the hives as well so put them up on oil drums that stopped them but not the pine martin so had to trap them and release them a few miles away
-
firstly i must stress they are all returned safe and sound a few miles away and are not culled cought plenty of martins with my mate next door who owns the land around me this is the second in as many weeks they had been busting open his bee hives for the honey out of about a dozon hives i think he has one active one left so the martin is a bloody nuisance to him and easy to catch if there about just bait a cage trap with honey/jam or peanut butter and youll have him in the morning this beutifull animal is a common sight here they were supposed to be introduced by coillte [foristry com
