Your picture at the feeder made me think of using poison to control them. A Google search yielded this, about using Sodium Nitrate.

Your likening them to that plow provided a vivid picture to the uninitiated urban dweller. Wow!

I hope you have better luck controlling them, than us New Yorker's have had with the Norway Rat. They have become YouTube stars, toting pizza around subway stations. AKA Pizza Rat.

My wife's cousin showed up as I mentioned and killed this nice boar on Saturday evening about an hour before dark!

My wife made me laugh and I have to share this. I was sharing this post with Mary and the picture of the plow and how it's like what the hogs do, she said as a matter of fact, RD should just train them hogs to plow the fields :lol: works for me!

Nice to see you had another memory with your dad. Times to cherish and store away.

I've been concentrating on a lot of bobwhite quail work as of late and in dense stands of thorny brush the hog's rooting action is not bad as it removes the grass, kills some of the brush, and generally improves things for qual. Of course if they come across of a nest of eggs, they eat them.
