No biggie... I would have just found I comical had I read that all earlier!
Sadly, amid all the confusion of the standards are many confused people. Many parts of the standards are in the process of being implemented. However, coyote restraining traps have hit a bit of a set back. It looks like more trap by trap testing may be in order.
I sure hope when/if we test more, every trap will be outfitted with 3/16" + 1/4" lamination strips, or even more on the extra powered traps, such as those with 4 heavy #3 springs. Rubber pads are just too high maintenance but might as well finish the job testing them too.
Hopefully our wildlife enforcement officers are up on the standards, in particular the fact that it will not be 100% implemented and which parts of it are not law as more of it becomes implemented.
