True story: Some years ago an acquaintance of mine was informed by the Fish & Game Dept that shooting coyotes with his paintball gun was "harassing wildlife." He asked if he could simply shoot them dead with his AR15 and the game officer said that would be permissible as that constitutes legal hunting.<br /><br />Sounds like it's electric fence time for your property.Doug Klassenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16120274946344780566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807403883562053852.post-80423497151180355232015-07-26T15:16:33.094-06:002015-07-26T15:16:33.094-06:00http://www.electrobraid.com/wildlife/deer-fencing-...http://www.electrobraid.com/wildlife/deer-fencing-electrobraid/<br />Billy Oblivionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16282343088921248885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807403883562053852.post-62486141901923356712015-07-26T15:00:16.414-06:002015-07-26T15:00:16.414-06:00Environmentalist warn us that cow flatulence is ad...Environmentalist warn us that cow flatulence is adding undue amounts of greenhouse gases.
