I posted this on another website but I thought it would be interesting to see what replies I get here as opposed to the other site.
One October day, this fall, I was hunting from a slightly of elevated deer blind located in a fairly new pine plantation of East Texas. It was getting pretty late in the day when suddenly a sow came out of the pines and went straight to an empty tube feeder. After checking that feeder out she headed for a second tube feeder. Behind her, in single file, came 6 very small pigs. She led those little pigs to the second tube feeder. I was amazed when she stood aside and let those little pigs eat while she watched.
My question is. Under the conditions I described would you shoot the sow, pigs, or any and all you could?
