Scarecrow for wild hogs

Here you go guys. A end to your wild hog problems.
For a little less that $5000 or lease it for $115 a month you can have your own scarecrow made especially for wild hogs.
It is a solar powered Super Monster Wolf that detects animals entering the field by infrared sensors.
Its eyes light up and lets off 1 of 18 different sounds that includes gun shots and people talking.
It has a range of 1/2 a mile in all directions.
What struck me as odd is it was invented by a company in Japan.
Guess they have wild hog problems over there also.
You woulda thunk some Texan would have thought of this already.

recent news: wild hogs were taking over northern Japans' cities, endangering elderly folks.
 
Putting in a new 20k acre lake about 30 miles N. of me. Expect more of an influx of them. Currently just in the creek bottoms. I'm on the hill top so I have been spared so far. Neighbor that has creek property, keeps his two-twenty-three in his truck.
 
We are supposed to have 6 million Feral hogs in the US as of a month ago....probably another mil today. News has Texas with half of the population. TX Parks and Wildlife folks have a test area in Central Tx. near Austin where they are trying out different remedies.

Current remedy is a feeder that feeds them bad feed. It is an elaborate thing with trap doors over the feeder openings and it only opens when it hears hog's "oinking. If it hears Coons, it turns on loud obnoxious noises and a perimeter electrical shocker wire mounted a few inches off the ground (like a hot wire for cattle) and scares the Coons off; doors remain closed.

The TPW became self funded 10+ years ago so I guess this isn't costing the taxpayer anything. Don't know where they will be deployed, if at all. May sell them to municipalities if hogs get to be a problem or something of the liking.
 
Unfortunately for us, trespassers would either use it for target practice or steal it and mount it in the bed of their Chevy truck.
 
Our farm store orshellin has a plastic stick with two red lights mounted on it that look very much like that wolf eyes on that scarecrow. Believe it is called Nite Guard and is solar powered. The company making it claims wild animals see the red eyes or lights at night and believe the red light eyes belong to a predator animal waiting to attack them and will not go near the red lights when placed at low ground level. Have never tried it, it is marketed to repel coons & other critters in southern Indiana. Is good deal cheaper than that wolf, but it does not howl or have sensors.
