Wild hog problems

[Happy hillbily]

Helicopter hog hunting is an eye opener .
Damn good shots !!

Done a bit of pig hunting in NZ with dogs, seemed to use blue healers a lot and whatever dog they found in the pound [emoji85]

Yes I've been and done the same, any dog with spirit was used, serious job nipping in with the knife to finish.

Shot lots of goats being shuttled by a helicopter but not out of it. Apparently the week before someone shot the skid and the ricochet nearly hit the pilot !!!!

One of our local primary schools has a pig hunt for a fund raiser.

Caught quite a few pigs with dogs and it’s a rush alright lol

Had a few goes at hunting bush-pig (feral descendents) and warthog in Zim, we used rifles and shotguns and even tried 'pigsticking' from horseback - great fun that but, on balance, more dangerous to us than for the pigs...

Also this thing re dogs from pounds etc. There are plenty of lads out there putting a serious amount of time and effort into breeding and producing one up pig dogs. They do however use breeds you wouldn’t believe like Great Dane etc which long went out of any working use here

My family have had danes for generations, they were originally boar hounds, and closer in size and shape to mastiffs, then fashion took over...

I've seen a YouTube video of a Texas farmer spraying his maize with a JD self propelled sprayer with a gunman on each side of the cab with an AR15 rifle each hosing down the feral pigs as they drive. These are pigs that have escaped captivity and have made a life for themselves in the wild.

You wanna see the pigs in Brazil, now that’s bad!

Somewhere “down south” to hunt wild pigs.

Didn't realise it was a problem in Hampshire!

Don’t think Roy is in Hampshire, and fairly sure that Hampshire isn’t south of Ohio either.

Here is a video from a bloke I know.
Dogs catch them and he sticks them.

My kinda dogs those mate. I’m sure you’ll get some flack, but that kind of hunting sorts the men from the boys

Even girls can do it.

They can indeed. In the uk there’s a big culture of shooting, and hunting with dogs is now illegal. They call it progress apparently ......

Aye we are but mostly the rabbits have died out.
