Wyoming Trivia (Renamed) (Casper, Gillette, Rock Springs: eat, kids, fish)

I had just read a book that told about how NaTrona county got it's name.

What rare animal can be legally trapped for domestication in Wyoming?

[Claim Jumper]

a ferret black footed?

[Claim Jumper]

I agree with Tiger Woods and what he thinks of second place!
For the record, I was correct!

Close enough. You got it.

Falcons, both the peregrine and prairie varieties, may be trapped on a limited basis for use in falconry in Wyoming. However, a prospective falconer must train for two years under an established falconer to become licensed for owning his or her bird.

Your turn.

Darn, I should have known that one, as my son was training to become a falconer. Course he was training in WA and not in WY, but he was looking into continuing his training here in WY. Now he is doing a different sort of training at Camp Pendleton.

I believe the law is the same in WA as it is in WY about being able to catch and own a bird of prey, you have to be a licensed falconer in order to do so.

Thanks EH.

My ex-wife's cousin attended the Air Force Academy, was sent to vet school, and then returned to the Academy to train and care for the falcons that perform at Air Force football games, etc. He'd barely gotten back to the Academy when he was sent TDY to Alaska for the summer to capture a new falcon to train. Tough assignment!




This Wyoming mining town was home to such notables as Henry Comstock, who later discovered the famous Comstock Lode in Nevada, and the colorful Martha Jane Cannary, aka Calamity Jane. It's been uninhabited since 1960. What's its name and where is it?

That would be MIner's Delight and it is located just a few miles east of Atlantic City, WY.

That's right, Wyoquilter. Your turn.
