I have seen what squirrels and crows and coons etc can do to a crop. A sick feeling it is when you go out to find the local pig population has fattened up on your peas, the deer have destroid your watermelons and the coons have eaten and pulled down your corn. Squirrels love tomatoes, yep they do and anything else that makes a good sandwich. Crows are bad about pulling your sprouts out of the ground. Yes, I have eaten said hogs, deer, squirrels, coons but not the crows. I keep a Gamo wisper .22 and a walther talen .22 with a air venturi gas piston for critter control. Sorry, no video.

Some of those looked to be almost as big as some prarie dogs! I don't have a problem with taking them out in these numbers if doing the type of damage I've seen prarie dogs do to acres and acres in the Texas Pahahndle.

I DO have a problem with some of the shots that appear to be at an upward angle - particularly some of those off the branches and with power lines and who knows what else beyond!
