Red foxes are really pretty. Don’t think they are hurting anything significantly.

All of the above is true but I know you know they are fricking horrible. At the rate those frickers reproduce they will end up hurting our whitetail population along with quail. They are delicious and fun to shoot but I’d certainly be ok if wild hogs were wiped out.

our environment and wildlife as we know it is in trouble if something massive and on a nationwide scale isn’t done to quickly eliminate wild hogs...

Quail in Deep South are on life support even without hogs

Reintroduction of the whitetail was good

Homosapian was bad.
