New garden spot?

No, just where the hogs have been working! Don

Feral? If so, I'm sorry.
Might work well for a garden. They do a good job "prepping" with fertilizer! 🙂
Looks like those hogs have done grown and left, time to replant!
I was reading a report the other night that stated it is virtually impossible to rid our nation of feral hogs without changing tactics drastically. They did not specify as to a description of 'drastic' measures.
If officials can add taxes at the drop of the hat, why not put the unemployed to work harvesting these invaders while being paid a bounty for each tail brought in. The harvested hogs get the FDA treatment and go into the food programs around the country feeding the poor and unemployed. 😁
Well it's a start. I think a little shootin is in order though.
They don't mean no harm... just waiting to eat all the pecans
Don, your damage is worse than the damage we had here, but I can relate! We had some Feral Hogs visit our backyard one night back in September 2019 and they did damage at the bottom of our yard around each of the three Aerobic Sprinkler Heads. Here is a picture of the worst damage; they also cracked the sprinkler head pipe at that one. The next night as the hogs started their mischief in our area, our neighbor across the County Road we live on saw them in his yard and killed the Boar. Thankfully, we haven't seen any Feral Hogs since then and after I put that area of the yard back together, it all filled in and you can't tell we ever had a problem!!!!
If you can't feel the music; it's only pink noise!
We have been killing them for years. Have had guys with night vision come out and kill 15 to 20 a night. Sometimes you think you have them under control and then you get what I found this morning. Don
It would appear that they may work cheaper than 'imported labor' if you're needin' more area tilled up!
Do not relent. Those things all deserve to die.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
You need a scarecrow,,
That's bad. Can you shoot them where you are? I see where you said you do.
Hog traps or one of those large circle ones that catch a lot of them at the same time
We have one of the large remote control traps. It works using a camera and your phone so you know when to release the door. It works but you have to keep moving it. Not real easy to move and setup. Don
Ready to plant.
