I remember seeing a show filmed in Louisiana, where this guy's job was sitting in a chair in the back of a pickup truck as it drove along a canal, and he would just keep shooting nutria (big rodents) about every five seconds.

My two thoughts were - why doesn't PETA scream bloody murder about this? how do I get such a cool job?

“(big rodents)”

And probably every one of them registered to vote. I’m with you on that being a dream job.

I saw the same show, but all I could think of was. (1) The government is paying two trucks of guys to do something that most of us would do on a lark of you let us. (2) If you really wanted to kill off the super rats you need to poison them. And gas the sewer lines. Considering the rate at which they reproduce you would never make a serious dent in the population with a .22.
