    Titty sows on my possum line

    I took this wee video of some titty sows during winter

    I was doing a few traps up the back before it got too wet to get up there, and had noticed a couple of possum bodies had been eaten but didn't pay too much attention
    to them
    Where I am standing is at the last trap on the line, I had just finished and plucked the last possum and was heading back down when a little piglet shot past, I knew mother pig would be around so drove down hill away as I normally would then parked up and snuck back up the line, wind was in my favour and this is what I saw...

    The possum was not even 5mins old, you can hear the sow crunching bones(turn vol up) you can also hear the second sow grunt and snort when she sees me but couldn't smell me , guess her hunger pains or need for protein was greater as she didn't run away

    Watch as a third pig turns up, the first sow is not having any of that though and she picks up her prize and buggers off

    I am certain one of the black sows is the same I had bailed up with my soft bailing dog a few weeks earlier , we were checking the neighbours place and spooked her out with the cattle, storm was about to grab a piglet and I called her off, the sow then gathered her young and hid them a massive flax bush then proceeded to chase the dog and myself away, so we had a bail up and pig chase us around in circles for a bit, at one stage I had to jump up on a gate to avoid being bitten, I called storm off and we left her to it

    That's awesome, big old bitch crunching that monkey, the auntie had a good look and a snort at you.

    Good skills in the video Moonhunt
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
