Jeff a12Ga works well
Soon the groundhog’s 6 kids will be there eating too.

Walking Meatloaf on four legs.... :^)
They ruin a garden quickly. They will ruin a tomato plant to take one bite from a green tomato. Cute but very destructive. I trap and relocate to the woods. They occasionally have rabies. If you don’t catch them when you first notice damage, they devastate.

Cajuns put worse in jambalaya...
Wife loved it. Tnks for the points!
That was a great little video thanks
The guy (Chunk) got really chunky right before his hibernation time.
Next year, he’s bringing the whole gang for the free buffet.
Cute
I relocated a lot of groundhogs one summer using a large live trap.
The little ones were cute.
Adults, not so much.
Thumbs up but he’s going to have 50 families there in no time.
Free stuff.
Groundhogs aren’t “adorable”. They’re very destructive pests. I’ve shot (AR15) hundreds of them over 23yrs at my nursery, thrown the carcasses into the upper field. Hey, buzzards and maggots gotta eat, too.
Hah!!! That is pretty damn funny...!
Quick story:
Some years ago, my first two Beagles were in the living room, laying on the floor, next to the chair I was sitting in. Was Spring, almost summer. Inside door to the deck was open, and the sliding full-screen door was closed.
Neighbor had a groundhog burrow under their deck.
This fat little critter would pop out, run along the other side of the fence, and torture the crap out of my beagles. Also ripped my tomatoes to shreds whenever he could.
THAT day however, the little b&stard decided to up the ante. He came into the yard, UP onto the top step of the deck and stood up on his hindend, looking in the door.
Boy Beagle’s head comes up ... “RRRRRR??????”
Girl Beagle’s head pops up... “GRRRR!!!!!”
Instant, fur-covered black and tan Rage Machines...
And before I could stop them, they went THROUGH the damn screen door, launched off the deck - and I mean AIRBORNE - and the chase was on.
Ground hog goes tear-assing across the yard, makes the most astounding 90-degree high speed I’ve ever seen, ducked under the wire fence and gone... back under the deck.
The dogs, however, could NOT cut the sharp turn, and just WRECKED themselves in a tumbling, howling heap. Funniest damn thing I ever saw...
They came slinking back in through the ripped screen door, like “Yeah... I know... just got humiliated by a rodent...”
Wish I’d filmed it. Blink of an eye...
That is so neat! I also had a groundhog, it was late in season and I didn’t care but he didn’t eat my garden, he ate my decorative sweet potato vine, just ate the leaves and left the vines. He also lived under a shed, the neighbors shed.
I like the guy said ‘it’s his land too’.
Haha thanx for posting
Cute and very destructive. Fireworks in the burrows helps them decide to move on!!
