DNR is useless when it come to protecting the family pet. I had a similar problem with a Hawk. I looked up Hawks and found most will not attack a small dog. They only hunt when they are hungry and usually go for prey in the open and I live in the city. I called DNR they were like noooo hawk wont touch a pup. So I get a pic of the hawk now preying my bird feeders and picking off mourning doves left and right off my bird bath. Im like what the hell??? How many birds can a hawk eat in a day???? I send the pic in to Michigan field and stream and they said it's a Coopers Hawk. Come to find out the Coopers Hawk is one of the few Hawks that kills for the FUN OF IT!!!! Not just to eat. Greaaaaat. Now I stand right over my babies when we are outside and can I just tell you at least once a week we going screaming after our dogs yelling theres a hawk a few doors down circling we scoop up babies and into the house. Even my kids are now aware of how to watch for Hawks and to scream and ghet dogs immediately. We battle this weekly and its a pain in the butt. I wish you the best and a private relocator may be your best bet, but I would research if they pack year round and what the odds are there is only 1 so you dont waste your Money removing one to have another one prancing thru your yard.. |
We have a HUGE fence, and they told me the fox is prob jumping it!!!!
