Wow...hate to wake up with a giraffe standing outside my window. :lol2: :lol2: All those exotics are "open season" around here if they get out and are running wild. (Even the kangaroos Sky). :cowboy:Jogeephus":1c97xviq said:These aren't hunted only raised as a hobby just for the heck of it. Hunting these is illegal here when pen raised and you can't sell the meat. These are mostly reds but there are fallow, elk and some other deer creature I forget the name of. Also have a few other oddities and am told he is wanting a giraffe. :lol:

Kingfisher":3fh0ud9m said:Not to change the subject...but did you ever capture that big buck laying dead in the woods you posted a few months ago?
Jogeephus":2si17tuq said:Saw this on the way to work today. Gotta say a few dark thoughts did cross my mind but I didn't turn to the dark side but I'm sure there are some who might find this sight too much to resist.
Jogeephus":2si17tuq said:Not sure which one you are talking about. If it was the elk that was standing in the cotton .... its dead. Can't take credit for it though. I did have my chance with it standing broadside but I was standing on the edge of a state highway and I wasn't sure what the warden would think of my taking the shot. Tried him on phone but didn't get him till it was too late and I was disappointed to hear he would have wanted me to take the shot.

No, the law would have been the least of my worries. I am sure you are aware there are some people you just don't mess with and he is one. Last couple of people who were stupid enough to poke a stick at him left town and won't even write home to their families.
Must admit I was tempted to get a ghillie suit and weave some soiled diapers and natural light cans on it and lay in the ditch and take some shots at them.
Then you have to worry about shot placement, and with one of those fancy, high dollar, hog fence type setups, you not only have to account for the vertical wire but the horizontal (I assume with your record, this what deterred you? )
