Where's the beef?
« on: February 20, 2023, 02:16:35 PM »
Where it lays.  Too bad they don't allow a special hunt.  Been there for years, what's a few more weeks.  They should do these hunts where feral horses and burros are destroying habitat.

By feds own numbers 50 or 60k feral equines need to disappear and they run a program to whack 150 bovines.  Kind of like trimming your toe nails because you have stage 4 cancer

The AR's got that ball rolling... Feral horses are too much like my little ponies, so they can't fathom having them shot.  But animals that provide a meat food source... sure, kill those.   :rolleyes:

Gary
One does not hunt in order to kill; on the contrary, one kills in order to have hunted. If one were to present the sportsman with the death of the animal as a gift he would refuse it. What he is after is having to win it, to conquer the surly brute through his own effort and skill with all the extras that this carries with it: the immersion in the countryside, the healthfulness of the exercise, the distraction from his job. ~ Jose Ortega y Gasset

They could have sold tags and made money and people
Could have gotten meat from it. Instead spending lots of money and I assume the meat will go to waste. What a shame

Hunting wild LongHorn cattle in heavy brush would be crazy!  :yike:

We have wild Longhorn here in Oklahoma, They are not something to take lightly. They can be very aggressive.
So I’ll would be a kick in the pants to try. :tup:

Is there something against it? If it’s feral and on public land does Ok have some law protecting it?

In Oklahoma they are mostly on wildlife refuges, so no hunting allowed.
That I know of.   :bash:

We have seen the attack a couple cars in the Wichita Wild Life Refuge in SW Ok.

If you could hunt them you would get a serious amount of beef. They are huge.  :tup:

Dang that would be awesome. Apparently these ones are on national forest. Not sure why they don’t sell tags for them :dunno:

Whats the difference between a feral cow and wild horse, turns out its sentiment.  I also question whether the bull in the photo is feral.  Looks pretty good to me

The bull in the pics looks healthy. 

The article says they'll leave them where they fall. 
Those will be some spoiled coyotes for a little while.   

It does seem a shame they can't sell tags.

Probably has to be a game animal for a tag.  God forbid they allow someone to take a feral beef.  Me and my dog would be eating good.

If they plan on just leaving them where they fall, my guess is that a few guys will conveniently find themselves in the area and go take advantage of the slaughter after the fact. I would.
I hunt, therefore I am.... I fish, therefore I lie.
