That is pretty wild!  That could get into your pocket book pretty quick if they played that game very often.

Were you able to shoot em right where they are laying?  That is some pretty handy rifle work!

I used to not think that happened very often at all but I think it's becoming more and more often that they are killing fawns.. Or I'm just seeing it more...  In the last year I've seen it happen twice that a boar hog ran out of a field carrying one..

That is a pretty scary thought. Difficult land owners or deer hunters need to see this. With all the fawns I have been seeing...I wondered how common this occurs.

i'd say there was something probably  wrong  with the  fawn ..... coyotes a nd  bobcats  would  wipe  out  deer  herds if the  fawns  was  easy  enuff  to  catch that  hogs caught em  regular .......

That was probably not the first one they killed either. That is crazy for sure.

Crazy pics Jesse.

I think some hogs just get the taste for venison and they develop a knack for finding fawns this time of year. Same with cattle and sheep. More than one hog hunter on this web site can tell you about calf and lamb killers.
I dont know how common it is but I have been hearing about em for a long long time. Cant say that I have ever actually killed or caught one though.

Thats a hog for you, up here they have been found to have rooted out coyote pups and eat them before there eye's are open. I don't know if that's good or bad, but show's just how much of a predator they really are

That's a sight that you came up on.....bet it happens a whole lot more than the deer hunters are willing to admit. Look at it this way......a hog is smarter than a coyote of that I'm sure and they have a nose second to none, they will capitalize on any situation that will benefit them, so why wouldn't they eat every fawn they could find?

They usaully eat the ones that were just born they smell the blood and the placenta were they have the fawn that is what attracts them there ababy fawn will just lay there and let yopu walk right up on it untill it is about 2 1/2 weeks old they will not hardly run at all there wasnt nothing wrong with the baby fawn untull the hogs got a holt of it. we had the same thing happen here when we were raising alot of goats i dont think all hogs do this it s just the ones that get that first blood in there mouth and they seem to get a craving for it one boar hog will wipe out a kid crop pretty fast

hahahahaha  thats  what  i was  thinking  when  i  first  read  all the  posts  this  kind  of  stuff  would  be  good  to  get  hunting  permission ......


the questions i have about it is ...

if  baby deer was so easy to get when born how does any survive ?

we all hunt  during the time they have  little  ones ,,,

why doesn't  some of our dogs ever bay  one  up  or  catch em ?



they will eat small goats and small pigs and i am sure any fawn or calf or whatever they can but i don't think its a big problem .....

i'm just  messing around  on here nothing serious just something  to past the time  with ya'll ....but  i do believe  if  they ever  come  up with a   sure  fire  way  to exterminate  hogs we will all  be  crying
