RE: Someone I know......
 

ORIGINAL: huntingson


You think a fox is going to kill a calf? The only things that kill the chickens around here are racoons. A couple of my neighbors hate racoons because they kill the chickens, but no, not one farmer has ever complained to me about a fox or coyote. Now sheep ranchers that I know HATE coyotes, but never heard them complain about a fox. Do I know EVERY farmer and/or rancher? No, I don't. Would anyoneof the farmers around here cared if I killed one? No, they wouldn't one way or the other. Just my experiences. That is all.
I don't think a fox is going to kill a calf. I didn't say that....I was talking about yotes. I agree, the days of people having lots of chickens/ducks running around the farm are pretty much over. Different regions play into as well, I'm sure. Most farmers here want the vermin killed, complain about crop loss to deer, but are hesitant to let people kill them. Go figure[&:]

I think that coyotes are one of the most vicious animals on the planet. No kidding.

Yes, the change in the average farmer's attitude over the last 5-10 years has been amazing. It used to be anyone could hunt now they don't let anyone. Like you say, go figure.

Good stuff....and I DO have a special relationship with this pair. It's not the end of the world AT ALL.....it's just disppointing on a few counts. I told Lisa, last night.....that I was going to have the "Sheriff Taylor" approach on this one. :)

Grab his dad by the throat and *itch slap him six times back and forth, 3 on each side of his criminal raising face. When the fox killer comes to his rescue 4 kicks in the sac with steel toed work boots ought to handle the situation. Or-----you could just keep your snout in your own business.

Now that is an approach I haven't read before in this post.[:-]

It is disappointing to me to read how many people on here think that it isacceptable to poach animals and that it is not the business ofhunters to police our own.

You could go a step further and say there should have been a citizens arrest.

Agree 100%. I don't care if your a farmer, priest, celeb, or joe blow.....there isn't anything right about poaching animals. It is beyond me how people can feel good doing it.
