I've written about it before.......a young kid has a pellet gun in my neck of the woods and the old timers pay him and his buddies $5.00 a bird......Evidently, he shoots them in the head and that stops them quickly and it is humane. The old timers use them for fertilizer.

Maybe we should just run 'em over with our boats?

That would work, too. Just watch the speed limit!

Fish and Game needs to step in here and extend the hunting season as well as daily bag limits to get their numbers in control. Educating the general public about proper barrier techniques and especially why it is so important to never feed them!! Killing them out of seasonal dates as people deem necessary is not the solution. Certain times of year are selected for harvesting for good reason, the harvest numbers just need to increase.
