“Okay they’re way over there still, I’ve got plenty of time to grab a bite”. Good timing by this buck to walk in front of the camera as the helicopter passes in the background working on reducing hog and coyote numbers!

Deer season may be over, but the work is far from over. Predator control needs to happen year-round for it to be effective. Shooting a couple pigs during hunting season helps, but remote-triggered corral traps like this make a much bigger dent in pig numbers. We have had this trap going for 2 weeks and have dropped the gate 3 times already. The other two groups were sows with piglets, which is how we get big numbers off of a ranch in a hurry.
