There was one listed here earlier in December but i think it is sold
Why would you waste your money? Studies show they don’t work unless you shoot the birds as they are released
Idaho F&G was pressured into the surrogator program at the Sterling WMA # years ago
The biologists I had contact with told me they had way more return for the $$ on pen released birds and there essentially zero carryover on the surrogator birds which is supposed to be the selling point. All the birds were banded and way more bands recovered from hawk kills and coyote and fox scat than hunters returned
There is one in the middle of an 80 that appears to not have been used for years Maybe I can pick it up on the cheap and resell to you How much are you willing to pay?
