jfgpm Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 (edited) HI, some pictures from our region. This year is a bit nasty. During spring we had a lot of rain, the south part of Germany was in great parts flooded and the temperatures were freezing what caused great losses at our partridges. After that the wild boars took over and turnd most of the not very well grown corn fields in a kind of battlefields Many fields looked like this on Others even disappeared in between 2 weeks The revenge was merciless but until today the wild boars have their nose in front.

jfgpm Posted October 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 one big pork scratching Indeed and unfortunaly, because the hunters here have normaly to pay for it Ummmm, looks delicious! It was. Small pigs around 15-20kg are perfect for such a job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Than something of this stuffhttp://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolophoniumand a tool which I couldn't find in the web at the moment. Looks like a cowbell with a sharp rim and a hock on the other side 6. again hot water and and shaving My daughter (9) takes a strange interest in these sort of pics , maybe she has never known anything else she is at the side of me and says the pics are cool and has just wished for a slice of that (pig on a stick) as she has called hog roasts for several years....

al4x Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 Nice pics but are you having to pay compensation for the damage as seems to be the way with some hunting leases in Germany? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hunters in Germany rent the right for hunting on the ground from the landowners minimum something around 210 ha in one piece or from one landlord about 82ha in one piece. In the past and still today most of the contracts state that the hunter has to pay 100% of the damage in the field or the forest caused by hoofed game, rabbits and pheasants no other animal like geese and pigeons.With changing situations in Germany (more and more biogas plants, more and more wild boars, less hunters ...) hunters and farmers sometimes agree to limit the maximum to be paid damage costs or divide them by 50/50 etc.Above pictures are from two fields:1. Picture: The hunters and farmers agreed a maximum limited to be paid in case of such a game damage (it is affordable but hurts)2. Picture: They are liable for all damages and will have to pay about 1400 up to 1500 Euros/ha (the corn wasn't that good) Edited October 2, 2013 by jfgpm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al4x Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Yes, unbelievable isn't it It's actually very sensible if you want enough boar present to be able to do that damage then you pay for it, otherwise you need to shoot them and have a smaller population Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
