I understand they have a really short gestation period, but are they really as difficult to get rid of as people make them out to be?
I can see where it may be a challenge on very large tracts of land with few hunters and trappers, but say we talk about an area with a denser human population. If Joe Bob and all his cousins are trapping/hunting them, how can their population continue to grow exponentially in this environment?
They really intrigue me and I have studied them quite a bit both online and in the field. Most every article/video about them goes on about how they are so difficult to get rid of, but I mean everything is finite, its only a matter of time before you knock the population down to a reasonable number. Or is that just not how it works with them??
