re: Controlling wild hogs

Vultures are feeding on dead hogs that have consumed the poison. Thus not directly exposed. The dead hogs are still safe for human consumption by the way.
This idea of selective poisoning came from Australia. The bird deaths have been studied there. The birds consume the poison directly thus killing them.

11 of the 16 Saturday night. 271 for the year. 3 more corn fields will be cut this week. Should easily top 300 total by Friday

I did find an article from 2018 about some bird deaths in Texas--mainly sparrows and blackbirds--caused by the birds eating bait that had dropped from the feeder. I could see small birds like that dying from a small amount of feed.
The article said they were working on reformulated the bait to make smaller crumbs, but I don't recall it saying how that would reduce the deaths.
