[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 707249, member: 6291"] I had to meet with a GW and a Special Investigator this past week. I found one hog on Friday in a pasture with about 30 dead buzzards around it. Another hog that I had shot and drug off also had atlead 15-20 buzzards around it. The reason this case is strange is the hog that was in the pasture made it a good distance from the spot of being poisoned before it expired. Even worse... the hog I shot... that had 15+ buzzards around was caught in a trap and I shot because it was tearing it up. It was in the trap 2 days before I shot it, appeared healthy, but obviously had enough toxins in it to kill buzzards still. This is not normal of the usual methods. The hogs or what ever usually never make it more than a couple yards. I caught 16 hogs that week in my trap with that one. All were about to be given to people to butcher Friday. Luckily this all went on before they took them. I hate hogs just as much as the next person, but poisoning is not the way to go. Look how many people it could have effected. I am not sure what it would have done after being cleaned and cooked, but I don't want to take the chance and find out. :( Samples were taken and the hogs were destroyed. [/QUOTE]
