Let's talk about wildlife

[plommer]

Blitty I'm pretty sure they eat all those critters in TN pal. Deep fried in batter usually makes it taste good.

You're welcome.

 

[Blitty]

He’s kind of cute.

 

[roguejuror]

Let's name him rayray

 

[Blitty]

Is this fokin guey serious??!

 

[stevek]

You gotta get rid of that fucker man

 

[Blitty]

Did some research boys.

These things can do devastating destruction to the integrity of my structure.

I bought a trap. I baited it with cantaloupe.

If the humane method doesn’t work, I’m gonna drop a bunch of double bubble, which will deteriorate his digestive system.

 

[Blitty]

Surveillance shows him hamming it up, out in the open at 6AM and 10 AM.

 

[roguejuror]

I think he's taunting you because you're from California

 

[Matty]

Groundhog? What is it?

 

[Blitty]

Woodchuck- Groundhog- Whistlepig

All the same.

 

[Blitty]

I just saw him eating grass 6 feet from the trap 🪤


Cantaloupes not cutting it.

Just added some banana.


This motherfucker.

 

[stevek]

Cocky little fucker.

Not sure if you have a firearm but....

Groundhogs are permitted to be shot if they are causing damage by encroaching into personal property. Worldwide, wildlife has protection under strict laws and regulations. ... Thus, shooting nuisance groundhogs on personal property is justified. Groundhogs belong to the rodent family.

 

[Blitty]

I have a 9mm.

My HOA might frown on me firing that thing all over the place.

 

[stevek]

Good point.

I don't know what you do with this one man.

 

[Blitty]

I stayed up all night to do surveillance.

In the photo you’ll notice the trap near the vermin’s entrance point under the stairs.

He somehow bypassed the trap, and continues to parade himself on my lawn in the background.

 

[reno cool]

Its a groundhog? Get him with a bb gun

 

[Blitty]

Its a groundhog? Get him with a bb gun

That might be my only option.

A bit aggressive to be shooting around my neighborhood though.

Only if you're a terrible shot, prettyboy.
