I referred her to young Chip Wilkins, our FiM and Wildlife Editor. "That's easy," says Chip. "Jugt. roll some bread into pellets, and make a trail of them leading out of the garage." Next day she called Chip again. "You sure are smart," she coo-ed, "to know a woodchuck will follow a trail of breadcrumbs. Now I've got two woodchucks in the garage!" From where I sit, sometimes "expert advice" turns out to be not so expert.
