While staying on a farm near Hadrian's Wall last week I saw these animals [corpses] displayed on a fence; not a pretty sight. The farmer said he paid the local mole catcher £3.50 for each animal trapped!
Urgggghhhh!!!!!!!

I've got a very active one in my garden just now! 
They put traps down the holes using a stick to locate the tunnels; I wasn't shown a trap ! David.
Nobody wants a moleskin coat! At £3.50 each they must be very expensive items of clothing ! David.

Moleskin clothing isn't actually made from the skins of moles! 
Is that a fact ? I am astonished to learn this 24 hours after posting the images ! What are they made from ? David.

I only noticed your comment about expensive clothing a long time after you posted this picture.
Moleskin is a manmade fabric with a finish that resembles the smoothness of the skin of moles. As you say it would take a lot of mole pelts to make a coat.
One lives and learns ! Thank you for enlightening me David.

A fountain of knowledge perhaps and a real charmer with it ! David
Must try to regain control of my hay field !

Have fun! It's raining here!
Its very hot and sunny in Inverness; really too hot to work so struggling with long grass because the mower can barely cope !
