Those Swine

Someone has seen Crocodile Dundee.

no, it's just that it's forbidden in Quebec to chase after a deer or moose with a truck or snowbile or ATV, I thought it was the same in Texas, but looking into it, it seems helicopter hunting is legal in some places here.

Hunting from an helicopter.  Chasing after an animal with a engined vehicle.

$3,700.  Get some.

Tanks and artillery and fixed wing air strikes might not be allowed, but you can kill them pretty much however you like (with some location restrictions, obviously) outside of that.

it's Texas, I should have expected this

  Hunting isn't really my thing, but if that wasn't so pricey I'd probably have to go check it out once.  At that point is it really even hunting anymore anyway?

It's probably closer to hunting than those safari parks where you blow away gazelles that are just standing there.

Quebec doesn't have a huge wild pig problem like Texas has.  I doubt you can hunt deer from a helicopter in Texas.

It's not really hunting-- it's eradication.

Alberta has a wild boar problem.  Fuckers snuck in from Saskatchewan.

Meh, I'd call the aerial hunting stuff a novelty more than anything.  It's not even close to what random dudes with rifles walking around in the woods or wherever do to the hog numbers. 

E:  Not that anyone will be complaining about the ~30,000 fewer hogs breeding due to that, of course.

I don't think you can.  I've never heard of it at least.

You're probably right, but you can apparently take down a huge number of pigs on one helicopter trip if you hit the right spot.

Yeah one of those places was talking about averaging 15-20 of them per flight.  That's a lot of future bacon running around.   Gotta pony up for the full auto to take advantage.

actually, we do, in certain areas.  And helicopter hunting is now allowed for wild boars and for moose on some park too, but I haven't looked at the specifics, so I don't know much.  And I don't hunt myself, so I'm not that interested in the subject.

Those feral hogs can get fucking humongous as well, right?

Wasn't there a show on one of the wildlife channels about some guy hunting one in Alabama or Mississippir or Georgia or some similar hellhole like that where it was like 600 pounds or something crazy?

790 Pounds

That includes speakers, right?  Gotta scare the hell out of Bacey.

*That's Bacey's point, Sir!*

What? Free helicopter rides?

I think that's a term now used in right-wing circles for the murder of undesirables, inspired by events in South America.  I'm sure Derspeiss can tell you more.
