Appreciate it...you know for being a hunter who has killed a bunch of deer and other animals without batting an eye, I really hate to see them struggling to find dry land like that. For lack of better words, it is "sad".

It's amazing how we are branded as killers and we can feel this way. What's even more amazing is how absolutely ruthless nature is.

Whats funny is on the facebook page for news channel 5. When they aired it and posted it on facebook people went crazy! Talking about how sad that it is and so on. Well people started arguing over wanting to get them food. People were talking about sending them HAY and stuff from a plane or helicopter. It was funny to see them get into it. People telling them this is mother nature and so on, they didnt want to here it.

+1. Thats why i said shooting hogs in that situation was not my tea. When the chit hits the fan like this everything is fighting just to survive. I saw a rabbit the other day float by on an old tire/rim. They'll cling to whatever they can.

Understandable..I am all for popping hogs whenever and however possible, I know so many people with severe hog problems, I just can't feel bad for them but here is a bunny (safely residing on my farm away from the flood waters!)

If you could see what they are doing to the levees, you might change your mind. The east levee at Panther went from just fine to rooted to heck in about 3 days. The way I see it, they are a serious problem. They destroy crops and natural vegetation. They'll eat anything they can get in their mouth. I would shoot them any other day of the year. High water concentrates them, exaggerates the problems they cause and catching them hemmed up during the high water is an opportunity to get rid of a bunch of them quickly. It's like catching all the wasps on the nest under your carport, versus chasing them down one by one in the yard.

Wingman, can you shoot them while you're working?

No but I have arrested 43.

Oh.... wait a minute, you can't arrest a hog. Who would represent it in the court of law? And the handcuffs, they would slide right off!

They never make it to court.

I am sure ACLU would represent them. Then that would tailspin into a push for gun control and control of oppressive law enforcement in poverty stricken Ms delta
