Sorry I am old school. You kill it you it for sport and you eat it.

Got no problem with hunting pigs, in fact I want to do it someday. But babies is a question for me.

I agree but I wouldn't call it hunting that's more like rats in the barn or rsbbits in the garden sort of thing.

When you live in an area that is infested with those bastards and a source of income for many are crops, I can tell you what the opinion of most is, shoot every single one. Regardless of what time of the year. If you want to eat it, go right ahead. If not, throw it in a ditch for the buzzards and coyotes. I have done both and will continue to do so.

Chucking them in a pit is a win win when the coyotes find them. Easy shooting to get rid of the coyotes.

I am experiencing a rapid increase in cottontails around my place. She thinks they are cute. I don't. Only when she isn't home. mtmuley

Been bad here too this year.

I ran out for my morning camera recon about daylight this morning and was surprised at the amount of cottontails we had also. Weird coincidence.

We didn't have any for a long time. Now I see them a mile or two from our place. Lots if them. The Marlin 60 is accurate as Hell. mtmuley

We get them in spurts but that's our only kind of rabbits here
No jack rabbits, just jackwagons.

Back when they were in season I couldn't get a shot at one to save my life. Now I have at least 3 or 4 running around. My cat visitor is too small to do anything with them.

I can see both sides.

This right here…..

They are not feral. They are Russian boar. Not that it really matters. We get occasional ferals but haven't seen one for many years. They are easy targets!

Like it or not…how different is it really from spraying RM43 where needed…

Pigs…Rabbits…Man sought to eliminate predators to make the land safe for families…but in doing so also absorbed the responsibility that the predators bore.

Conservation is about the responsibility to shepherd the land. That job description doesn’t include enjoying it.

Hah! I just got a call from a buddy asking if I wanted to run out to his place. The pigs are in his alfalfa. I declined, it's too hot today.

I'm available most days.
