This past weekend, a couple doods I know were telling tales of busting prairie dogs up.  Sounded like fun, so I came home and Google'd prairie dogs and found several organizations trying to keep those little bastards alive.  

I want to know...why??  They carry the plague.  They burrow holes that cattle fall into and break legs.  They eat a lot of grass that my four legged steak could be eating on.  And some folks actually suggest keeping these things as pets?  Huh?

I think I need to make it a mission now to go kill some prairie dogs.  Stories of shooting 'em and watching the red mist in the scope, or aiming a little low of 'em and tossing those suckers five feet in the air sounds like too much fun.  And it'll piss those fruitcakes that actually advocate keeping those things alive.

A friend of mine is really good at hitting them just under the chin and sending their head flying into the air.  It's sick and fun.

This p-dog wasn't shot, he died from a terrible brand of beer.

Never shot them myself, but it looks like it's definitely up my alley.

Don't make me drop some science on the thread...





In short, people see the fat little fuckers and think they are cute furballs.  They have no fuckin' clue what the habits of a praire dog in the wild, but they know they are cutie things, and must live.  Because killing cutie things is bad.  


They are no smarter than the turds that go flying across 3 acres every time I dump a 50 grain v-max into the crap factory of those flea bitten fuckers.  Fuckin Hippies.


fuckin praire dogs.

Prarie dogs are fun to shoot, I drive about 1 hour a few times a year to the middle of nowhere and blast away. Early in the year they let you get close enough to use a 22 later it's 223 45gr hp. splat. we also have ground squirrels everywhere here, in the desert by the thousands, fast little guys a 22 rifle and brick o shells all day fun.

I have a Bushmaster Varminer with a 6-24x50 scope and a bipod, all setup for PDog blasting.

Now, if I can just find a place with the critters that won't require a week of driving to get to...

They're Nature's little reactive targets.

They had no purpose until the gun was invented.


I'm sure of it.
