Interesting clip sent from one of the LA VTX group

Pig Shooting from Chopper.mpg

[opos04]

The propertry to the south of our place had a helicopter come in and shoot wild hogs. They used automatic weapons. When they went hunting they told us to put all of our dogs away untill they were finished.

What happened to one shot one kill....just kidding. Guy is a good shot.

The feral hog population has exploded in the last ten years.  They number about 7 million total in the US with about 2 million just in Texas.  When I use to hunt a lot I saw the damage they can do and it's pretty amazing and having a pack of them chase you in the dark of night can get hairy.  Been there done that!  They can wipe out (eat) a crop of anything in no time and they can plow the land as well as any mechanical plow.  As a farmer or rancher, I can side with them and see the need to control ( but not eradicate) them.  While I can agree to "thinning the herd", hunters should be made to recover the dead hogs and deposit them at food bank centers or homeless shelters.  Hunters could collect a small bounty for each one from the government.  That way the homeless get feed and the hogs are controlled and your tax dollars would be spent for something good for a change.

the places that will take wild game wont take them unless they are skinned, cleaned and processed.   Or so i have been told.

[opos04]

Texas won't let you take a dead animal to the processing plant. It has to walk in. Unless they have changed the rules in the last 5 years. The only way they can get around the rules is to have the animal gutted and skinned.

Processing plant  I don't need no stinking processing plant  It's not that hard, just hang em and skin em.
