I hate groundhogs! I would live trap him and give him a hot lead injection from a 22.

 

[husky455rancher]

this is my first time dealing with one. should i kill the bastard?

 

[PA Plumber]

Not sure it's a "him." Could be a "she."

If it's a "she," and you don't dispatcher her. Good chance you'll have oodles of pups running around by the end of summer.

Although, the one in the pic looks like this year's model. Would probably be next year before all the "extras" start arriving.

Vern (groundhog) lives under our shed and eats at the bird feeder.

They breed about like rabbits,move it far away or kill it.Aint doing your wood pile or yard any good.

Vern looks like a very old hog. A bit long in the tooth, you might say.

They arent aggresive and look kind of cute,especially to women and kids, but they dig holes for their den and throw alot of dirt out. Depending where the hole is it can cause probs. Then they love to eat greens like from a garden that you have spent alot of time tending to. Just my opinion, I would get rid of him. Quietly

 

[stihl sawing]

I can see some good target practice coming up. Can't miss him with this.

 

[Rookie1]

I said quietly. THATS TOO LOUD

 

[stihl sawing]

OOPS, Sorry

I had to take one out with my 22 just the other day. The sob dug under my neighbors pond overflow culvert. My neighbor ended up having to replace the whole 150' long culvert, at a cost of about 3,000. So I say pop him.

 

[husky455rancher]

i got a gun nut buddy but i dont have any land too bad he just got a ar-15 i think it was. im not huge into guns but its a friggin assault rifle. hes also got his machine gun permit lol. i might have to borrow a .22.

Not Aggresive:jawdrop: ? Ha! You corner one and you'll find out how aggresive they are! Have you ever looked at the teeth on one of these animals? There not afraid to use them, I'll gaurentee you that. Shot the damb thing! Don't fool around, and wish you did later. Ground Hogs around here get a 200 yard start. My rifle is set at that range. Nice shot too. If they get at my bird feeder, the 12 Gauge does a nice job. Bruce.

You got that right.

When I was a kid, our dog had one cornered in the field. I walked up to take a closer look and the thing latched onto my wrist.

It held on almost 100 yards with me trying to shake it off while running back to the house.

The hog ended up getting dispatched and I ended up with stitches.

 

[olyman]

and they can def tear up a yard--to dig for a den--DISPATCH it now!!!!

 

[toddstreeservic]

They taste pretty good if you use the slow cooker. (PETA answer)

That's nasty...

I whack one or two a year at my house. My neighbors didn't like me doing it at first, but then one of them started digging around thier pool. Now, they beg me to shoot em.

Ruger 77/.22 takes em out easy and it's pretty quiet.

What you need is about an 80 lbs. boxer, will take care of that problem in no time. That is if you dont mind barking, snarling, blood spatter(from groundhog), and the sound of breaking bones.
