Root hog or die!
“What they need is a damn good whacking”
“hoard” “horde”
Excellent proof reading there, nbc
Just one of the many reasons wild pigs are legal to hunt in CA, one pig per day is the limit, the season, I believe, is year round. I can’t get out and walk like I used to so don’t keep up with the hunting laws the way I used to, but I am sure hog season is year round. Used to be one a day one in possession but I believe you can have unlimited in possession now. They just keep multiplying, like our imported wild turkeys.
Get a bow.
Pigs multiply rapidly, and you have to kill lots of them to keep their numbers in control.
Check out this white paper (top of page 3 has the stat I’m referencing): http://www.oregon.gov/OISC/docs/pdf/swine_ra.pdf
“Neighbors have been frustrated with trying to get rid of the pigs. They’ve used pesticides to kill insects, which the pigs like to dine on. They’ve installed motion-sensored lights hoping that would keep the animals away. They said they’ve called the Dept. of Fish and Game, but haven’t gotten the runaround. And they’ve called a trapper, who initially set up cages, but has since taken them down.”
Oh, for cryin’ out loud, just shoot them already and have the neighbors over for a pig pickin’!
root hog or die
“Root hog, or die” is a common American catch-phrase dating from well before 1834. Coming from the early colonial practice of turning pigs loose in the woods to fend for themselves, the term is an idiomatic expression for self-reliance.
Send them to the Gitmo kitchen.
Kill the pigs. Kill them with guns. Kill them indiscriminately. This is the only cure for wild pigs.
I think that’s a “horde” of pigs, not a “hoard.” SOmebody get a dictionary, please!
“We’ve tried to deter them, but they keep coming back.”
Shooting them usually deters them better than calling them names, putting up signs, setting up traps (they are generally smarter than the trappers) or wishing they would go away.
