Wonder where this guy came from

[SaltwaterSlick]

While Im not doubting the reasons behind this and certainly see the need to control them (like pigs). I struggle to see the logic on shooting them because 'they came from mexico'. Much like risking loosing a great cape from a mexican deer due to ticks. What about all the other animals (4 legged) who freely walk back and forth between Tex and Mex??? They dont have ticks??????????

Or to they walk under a 7dust sheet at the border?

Oh, Bill Moody went ballistic on them! It went all the way to Washington DC... He terminated his contract with the USDA and began the process of filing a criminal trespass charge against them. I really don't know what the final outcome was on that, but it was probably a year before the "tick men" started to ride the ranch again. And the way the guys did it made it even worse... They were on horseback and herded the sheep into a steep draw along the cliffs near the river, then just blasted away at them and left them lying all around down in that draw... I actually found them and called the ranch foreman. He came and looked at them, then started making phone calls... It was not a pretty sight.

Just typical of what happens when the dang gubment gets involved in anything.... Whatever the situation, if the gubment gets involved, the outcome will be the worst possible!

I guess the ticks just vanished without harm as soon as the critters were dead?
