      @@randybobandy9828 I actually had one jump from a 20 foot oak tree from fighting with another male and I was almost in the middle of the river, quite far from the bank. It hit the water a foot from my kayak and I did get a picture but I was ready to bail from my yak if it had fallen on me. It splashed water at me and then dove under water and eventually came up and got onto the bank. I haven't been back in a while and probably won't.

    Well, I keep thinking of things… All it would take is for the USDA to announce that it is OK for brokers to go in and collect the babies and sell them as pets. Given as many people as there are that want one, combined with what they bring even on the open market from registered breeders- ( three to $5000); I predict within a week the supply of breeding pairs maturing to resupply the colony would be gone. Then the remainder of the adults could be dealt with as I suggested below in regards to bringing them all to Texas and conscripting them to Service as armed mercenaries to control the feral hogs ... etc etc ...

    They should be left alone to live their lives. Live and let live. They are hurting no one and are God's creatures just as we are. They have family connections as we do and love each other as we do and are far less greedy than the human race. Learn about them and you will surely change your opinion. They are very good mothers and love their kids as you love yours. They grieve, they cry and their babies get colic like human babies do. They are a lot like us.
