Here in Massachusetts, they are scarce. As a teenager, all of us hunted woodchucks in the many dairy pastures that dotted the land of southern Worcester county. Of course, they got developed when the farms were sold.

We do see chucks now and then, mostly as road kill, but not like it was in the heyday.

I do miss hunting pasture poodles.

Don't laugh but I have hunted the West on my summer vacations for varmints like prairie dogs, marmots and gophers. Tons of them and fun to shoot with a Contender pistol.

So. The varmint hunting in this part of the country is pretty sad.

Gophers (richarson's ground squirrels) and coyotes!! We have so many gophers, that our pro football team's mascot is a gopher!! Absolutely love hunting them, especially with my bow!

Believe it or not, someone about 100 years ago let go some prairie dogs on Nantucket Island. The town spent money, which is hard for frugal Yankees to do, and eliminated them.

I sometimes wished we had more varmints to plug away at .
