Great shot John!  Those Urban Bushy-tailed Rats can be quite destructive!  And, can empty an entire bird feeder in a matter of minutes, leaving the poor bird with nothing to eat!

not only that, they cost me over 12K$ when they ate up my 2018 model john deere 5075E
wiring harness and shorted out the engines ECM couple years ago. they also got to my combine
but before serious damage, i put him in heaven one early morning as i seen him jump from under the
belly pan.
thanks Paul for your input

The Hunting gate rules do not differentiate between pesting and hunting and most states do not either.  The rules are there to protect the GTA and its members from legal consequences.  It does not necessarily mean that we do not approve of taking game on your own property or like a bird feeder when we feel the circumstances call for it and we justifiably did so.  We just ask that you do not post it when it's out of season since we have no way of knowing or proving it is 100% legal. 

The rules however do make an exception for pesting/hunting posts on farmland all year round, since all 50 states allow the farmers to protect their crops and livestock.
