Its definitely a coyote and not a fox. The animal on OPs picture is much to tall and stocky to be a red or grey fox, red fox have a white tip on their tail and grey fox do not have a different color tip on their tail. Coyotes have a black tip on their tail. There are allot of coyote in NJ and they are in every county of the state. I was even found a den in Westfield in someone's well landscaped back yard.

Yes they do make good pets for the right person, they are not for everybody though. Believe it or not NJ is one of the few states that allows skunks to be kept in captivity, with a permit of course. NJ is considered a "free state" in the world of skunk owners.

All I have at the moment is 2 red tail boas the male is about 7 feet long and only about 10 lbs and my female is about 11 feet long and about 30 lbs

Umm baby skunks do spray and way more than adults. They don't know when to stop. Put the board in their and leave it over night. Skunks have really bad eyesight and it will take it a while to find its way out. Don't pick it up with your hands. Skunks are a rabies vector species so be careful. If you have a fine mesh net you could catch it with that but if it raises it's tail look out. They have to raise their tail in order to spray

Snakes are my favorite reptile too. I've been breeding Red tail boas on and off for 17 years now and still have the first one I ever got.

Irishpeteswife- You are half correct on the sand being bad. Man made sand is bad, very bad. it is made by being crushed, so when you look at under a microscope its sharp little jagged pieces that when ingested will cause blockages and perforations. But natural sand is made from erosion so when looked at under a microscope its round smooth pellets that will pass right through the GI of any reptile. Yes sand can harbor germs and bacteria but it can also be washed clean and baked dry in an oven so it can be reused. I used to breed bearded dragons for years, in fact I was the first person in NJ with "Sandfire Gold" Dragons for sale that I got direct from sandfire dragon ranch. All my desert dwelling reptiles are kept on a natural sand or sand and stone mix. While the paper is much easier I like a more natural look to my reptiles habitats and with a little work its just as clean

People fail to realize that on the average day humans have more salmonella on and in their body than any reptile. Its a good idea to wash your hands after any contact with any animal, especially humans.

Im out gota work

+1 for the Miss Beach Haven and the Beach Haven Yacht Club. Both are great operations owned and operated by great people. That dock is my home away from home. I wish I could make it next Friday. Good luck!

I have shot that exact same model and I loved it. Its not an everyday range toy but I had a great time shooting it and I want one really bad.

My S&W M19-2 is pretty and always goes bang when the trigger is pulled. Just sayin

I was watching some guy at EFGA shooting some monstrosity like that. Every single shot was a FTF or FTE. not sure if it was the same one but it did look like that

You guys might want to check out Jason Ellis on Faction 41 he is on at 3pm weekdays and reruns are played frequently. I was never a fan of O&A but I have been a stern fan since I was 19 and he is the reason I got Sirius but in recent years I think the stern show has started its decline but I listen to Jason ellis almost every day and he is the reason I keep my subscription.

HAHAHA that's funny they are tired of cleaning up the range at Clinton WMA. They don't clean up there hardly at all. Most of the time the trash cans at the clay range are full and are not emptied for weeks at a time. They could not even empty the cans before hurricane sandy and the cans spilled all over the parkinglot, and guess who cleaned that up? Members from NJGF did at the shotgun shoot a few days after the storm. To make matters worse when the 2 shooting stations blew down they just dragged them off into the woods to the left of the clay range and just dumped it there.

Welcome to Hunterdon county and you don't need a shotgun just show up with clays ammo and coffee and your welcome to use my shotguns and most likely others will let you use them too

Boy you weirdo's wont give it up just look at our own poll for the answer...........PORK ROLL

I have buffed many headlights before. I use a heavy cut buffing compound and a buffer then follow it up with a fine compound and they will look like new. I even went over some headlights that the owner used one of the head light restorer kits on and I made them allot better. OP- if your near flemington and want to bring the car over I will buff it for you for free. PM me if your interested

I am all for the right to carry and all but carrying a gun wont help at all with the "Knockout game". I was a victim of this a few years ago in Somerville. I walked out of a store and got my bell rung, I barely even saw it coming let alone had time to draw. The kid did not knock me out but did bring me to my knees and I could not see straight for a few moments. I would be afraid that if I was carrying a gun and they did knock me out they might take my gun. I do agree that if everyone in the state were allowed to carry a gun it might deter the knockout game a bit, but I really think that situational awareness is a better solution than CCW in protection from the knockout game. because of this and one other incident in my life where I was robbed at gunpoint I have become MUCH more aware of what is going on around me

Birds love hot peppers. Its even mixed into some parrot feeds. Check out bird be gone deterrents they work well. I used one on someone's house where a pileated wood pecker made a hole in the wood siding and made it onto the wall. Bird of prey decoys can also work.

Edwill86- I am not one to call the cops on any one for any reason but in your case I would have called the cops immediately. That's just insane! Other than one overzealous RO and one drunk guy who was not shooting but felt the need to try and help me with my AR when I was having an issue with it I have never had a problem at EFGA. Most often I end up bullshitting with whoever is there and shooting their guns and them shooting mine. However I almost never go on a weekend and if I do its first thing in the morning. I usually go Fridays, last year I went every Friday evening for a month and I had the entire range to my self, pistol and rifle.

Running a dehumidifier in your basement will get rid of the majority of them

I agree if they are cool with defending animals then I am confident its ok to defend people too. But like I said I think a blunt object like a bat or something similar would be as effective and allot safer to the victim than a bullet. No animal can do anything with a broken hip and the hip is almost always exposed when they are attacking something. Walk up behind it and go for a home run.

law does not say that you can shoot it just humanely destroy it. One of the acceptable methods of euthanasia approved by the AVA is gun shot to the brain in NJ. Shooting a dog in PA is not an approved method of euthanasia Go figure

4:19-9 Right to destroy offending dogs

As long as the animal is actively attacking a person or domestic/livestock animal on your own property you are ok to shoot but as soon as the animal has stopped the attack you can not shoot it. In your situation that you describe I would grab a pistol and run out and get in between the attacking animal and the victim, If the animal attacks me it dies plain and simple. Majority of the time when an attacking animal is challenged it will run away not all the time though. I would not try and shoot an animal that was attacking anything from less than point blank distances for fear of shooting the victim. Realistically a bat would probably be more effective. Smash a dog in its hip with a bat as hard as you can and the attack will stop and its not going to be able to move. If you don't want to put your self at risk call the cops that's about all you can do without putting your self in harms way
