Wild track diggers make a pig of a job

Are there any compassionate hunters who talk to the animals, asking them first if they are prepared to be hunted, prepared to die, to feed the hunter?

We need to talk to one.

A recent walk of our tracks revealed that the wild pig(s) are making digging up our trails a live and death issue.  I’ve talked to them repeatedly about my resorting to the ultimate level of track protection – death to pigs – if they continue to stay in the area and dig our trails. They have stayed. They have continued.

It seems to me that the only way is to kill them with compassion and to have a hunter that will give them one last chance by hunting them, and then if s/he catches them on Harmony land they enjoy eating the produce of his/her labour: wild pig fed by tree and fern roots grown under our tracks and in other open spaces.

I accept that it is hard to dig up such roots in the intangled root structure of the forest.

I also accept that I have a right to the trails … and that the pigs can continue to use them too, if they wish to dine occasionally, and sustainably in the wilder areas of Harmony away from the gardens and trails that sustain our ability to live here too.

Pigs I am looking for a compassionate hunter, if you are one, and you live near Dunedin, New Zealand please email David by way of Harmony’s Website. Thankyou.
