Children unlikely allies in feral hog hunt
14/10/09 10:18 PM

In its effort to control Florida's overpopulation of feral hogs, the state has enlisted some unlikely partners: children.

Kids like 9-year-old Cecilia Plummer, a fourth-grader at St. Jude's Cathedral in St. Petersburg. She will be one of 20 children to don gear and rifle for a hog-hunting expedition on a state reserve in Manatee County.

The youth hunt will be a first for the Southwest Florida Water Management District, which also touts the event as a way to get kids outside more. Parents will tag along on the free hunts, which will be held on two Saturdays this month.

The comments by the anti-hunting/anti-gun activists at the bottom are predictably amusing, considering how they've been trying to indoctrinate children for years.
