Natural death. I mean when a load of 7 1/2 shot passes thru, you naturally,,,,,, die.

Wild hogs are back. Didn't figure it would take em long. They rooted up the bottom as well as some in the back pasture. And poor Miss Mary's back yard(closest neighbor) looks like it's been root-tilled.
I set back in my man cave Tuesday night watchin a good pile of slop. Old black sow and a bunch of eating size shoats came in out of the brush. Several larger shoats in tow. So oldest son Is bringing over a hog trap tonight. I baited again last night with old cereal, cookies and such. They liked it! Report to follow!
Looks like I'll just have to figure out how to make woodchuck appealing- we have enough of those to feed an army at the new place.
I had to search for "woodchuck" online - the first time I've seen the word (I have seen the animal - in the zoo, but never in it's natural environment)LOL! I have never seen a woodchuck.
LOL! I have never seen a woodchuck. But I've heard of folks eating them. We don't have them down here. Do you all have armadillos yet? I know they are going north!
Btw, for folks that have never seen one, that big tree behind the trap is a mesquite tree. Some folks use them for cooking wood.
And some of us spend all weekend trying to eradicate those thorny devils
Looks like I'll just have to figure out how to make woodchuck appealing- we have enough of those to feed an army at the new place. I've got one who lives under a neighbor's shed at the current house and messes with my garden. It's illegal to discharge a gun here (residential).
We used gopher bombs on gophers which for some was big sport. Just a big smoke bomb that runs em out and participants watching exit hole offed em with. 22 pistols.
Renault, have you noticed a problem getting a hog who has sprung a trap and managed to escape getting him to go in a trap again? I have a friend who lives in east Texas who traps a lot of hogs. He uses jello and sour corn. I have heard him say that they get trap wise pretty quickly.
