If you had to choose how to take care of this, what would you pick? Let's hear which "tool," projectile, load, etc. you would use and how you would go about it.

That's an easy one ! A single 22lr shot to the back of da head just like in swamp people . Of course you gotta have some yellin choot em Choot em while your lining up the shot !
BIG treble hook and a chicken 1/4, lead him 5 ft, tie off to a golf cart----call the local TV news folks for the rodeo :)
I speared mine from the bow of an air boat. Hooked a bouy on him and fished him like a bass. once he got tired, I pulled him up to the boat and popped him tween the eyes with my .44 and drug him up in the boat. He was just a tad over 8 ft. Tasted like chicken.
In Florida? Get back in the cart they are a protected specie same as BLM members.
Sandhills are not that tough, almost anything will put them down though no reason to. Gators, I have never been close enough to know.
Check me if I'm wrong Sandy, but if I kill all the golfers their going to lock me up and throw away the key.
Shoot the golf cart. My personal offering in the quest for cutting edge firearm technology.
Or you could pick yer nose.
we have a hunting season on the sand hill cranes around here.
they will tear up a wheat field in no time.
it's bad enough that many of the Farmers will give them a corner of the field and work on scaring them into the 'safe zone'
I can see why the Gator was following them though they don't taste like chicken [more like roast beef]
You talkin the Gators or the Cranes? Cranes are the tougher of the 2 IMO.
Ever tried to stalk one of them things?
Good eyes, very good eyes, long necks, lots of them.
Look at the fool they made out of that gator. As big and tough as he is eh?
What you think they do to you? Probably feed you to the gator. Then tell the gator the human's on us, we are sorry for teasing you. Eat the human and enjoy.
So for the crane, Rem 788 in .243 with 30 grains of Dupont 3031 under a 60 gr boat tailed hollow point Hornady jword.
For the Gator, as mentioned above, .22lr or .22 mag back of the head from a Heritage Rough Rider with dual cylinders. Big gator probably .22mag.
Watch out of them cranes, they play rough.
We can't shoot them here, guess we're saving them for you guys? Not fair. Same with those darn white cattle egrets. Huge flock but 'protected'.
I have heard that Sandhill Cranes = Ribeye in the sky. I have not tried them myself, but now I am curious and I like ribeye. We have a hunting season on them in Texas, and I might just have to try it with a shotgun, of course.Quote:
