I was told to ask my question here since you guys
seem to know a lot about whats going on. On Friday
night, about midnight I was driving home on Rt.40
in Salem County, just passed commisioners pike. I saw
a truck with hazzard lights on on the right side
shoulder...not pulled off the road in that spot right
there designed for emergency pull-off, but ON the shoulder. There was a large, silver cage in the back
of the truck, I didnt see anything else with the truck at that point because thats when I spotted the
3 men on the OPPOSITE shoulder. they were in jumpsuits that were carhart-like, had miners hats w/lights, carrying flashlights (no guns) the one guy was carrying one of those giant tv antennae things like you see on wildlife shows when theyre listening for radio collars. By the time I got turned around to get back to that spot to ask them what they were doing or try to see markings on the truck, they were gone...however there are 2 or 3 dirt roads/driveways they couldve gone up, being female and alone it wasnt a good idea for me to actually stop and try to find them.
Fish and game say they know nothing. Ive had someone suggest that maybe they were tracking coyote....on the shoulder of the road? and 3 men to do it? why the cage in the truck then? planning on whistling for it, give it a milkbone and catch it?
Something just doesnt seem quite right. My farm is not far from this area and I'd be real interested to know if theres some sorta "problem" animal in the area. I was told it couldnt be a bear because they use cages that look like barrels and it would be a on a trailer and "they wouldnt release one right there" when F&G said that on the phone that made it sound like they HAVE released bears in my area then! just not at that exact spot. I would think there would be some sorta law or something in place that they have to notify local residents when something gets released or if something has become a problem that they suddenly need to FIND it again, but I guess not! We're not super populated, but there are houses around, quickest way to find something rather than walking around with an antennae is to ask locals "hey, if you see a ....call this number", but by not doing that, makes me think that they (whoever 'they' are) dont want anyone to know whats going on.
Has anyone on this board heard anything about what might have been being tracked that night in that area?
Thank you
