Default Fremont Neighborhood Under Siege After Gang Of Wild Turkeys Moves In

"FREMONT (KPIX) — Many Bay Area towns and cities seeing more wild
turkeys than usual this year. In Fremont, one fed-up homeowner says a
turkey attacked him.

In the past few years, the Warm Springs neighborhood in Fremont hasn’t
been the same since a gang moved in"

I presume they can't use firearms to thin the herd.

Grab them up by the head and use a sharp machete to chop the head off.
Then you can have free range turkey for dinner!

The California lefty looneys don't own a pocket knife let alone a sharp machete...nice idea in the other 49 though.Â* ;-)

Ex-Livermore denizen, here.

My other 'ex-Livermore' friend also moved, but not before he sed there
were NOW dozens of wild turkeys roaming around his old neighborhood.
Seems they've moved down outta the foothills and followed their wild
hog buddies down into the lower SFBA proper.

Nary a single one, here in the CO Rockies. 8|

There are a number of different kinds of trapping device that would
work. (snares, box traps, leg hold traps etc). I guy who was decent
with a cast net might be able to get them 2 or 3 at a time, throwing
it off his balcony. The problem is how would you actually kill the
turkey and not be accused of being inhumane? Remember all the ****
Sarah Palin got in because she inadvertently showed how it was done at
a turkey farm?
These snowflakes prefer thinking turkeys grow on trees in those
plastic bags they come in at Ralphs.

I think they wanted to ban lead. Right? Stainless steel shot cost
more. The birds are likely out of the hills because of all the recent
fires.

I'm taking notes. Who knows when the zombie apocalypse will happen and
I will need some survival skills to slaughter roaming turkeys!

Snowflakes in Cali have never seen a cast net or know how to make one
open full circle. :-)

There's quite an exodus from Californiastan by companies and sane people. I wonder if Californiastan will ever become like other Commie countries and shoot people who try to escape? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Then you would be eating a lot of turkey then.
BTW satire bit on
Great hedge on the apocalypse. Maybe we should be infesting the cities
and suburbs with game (more than now). When they got hungry, it might
keep them in town longer so we would not have to shoot as many when
starvation set in satire bit off ;-)

California wants to ban everything. I think steel shot is still legal,
although I'm not much of a bird hunter. Too much difference between a
Butterball and wild.

Your fire theory sounds logical.
