is livestock and pet mutually exclusive?

Well our dogs gave us company and that was it 🤷 I'll call them pets

Yes.

A hunting dog though, I wouldn't call a pet

livestock has real utility; pets are a luxury

@DankChum No, lambs where treated like pets too, still ate them though

Granted, you would probably love the shit out of your hunting dog.

No one I know with a hunting dog loves it

Really?

They go down to boars all the time

They're tossed away

It's sad

like I'd love a friend but that doesn't mean I wouldn't run his pockets when he dies

Oh, boars are fuckin' nuts, though.

same goes for pigs

Well boar hunting is the only reason to have them where I grew up

At least pigs don't come equipped with those damn tusks.

Probably different for other hunting dogs

@Xychotic You pull the tusks out when the pigs are young

You'd be lucky to get more then a year out of them

No more than a year out of a hunting dog?

Yeah in my experience

Wow. This is news to me.

Some last awhile but my school friends who hunted would always talk about new dead dogs they had

Aww.

They use about 3 each trip

And they did go regularly

Whenever I think of a pig with tusks, I often confuse boars with warthogs. I think what makes the warthogs different than the boars is the shape of their snout, it's supposedly designed for digging.

warthogs are african, iirc

Yep, the geographical location definitely makes a moderate difference too.

Were the boar hunting trips pest control or food hunting?

I have a problem, can u guys chime in on what yall think

Dunno, kind of hard to tell with the mountain lions about

Because I know that boars are absolute assholes.

so uhhh the men betraying mgtow video was just about pau infiltrators right?

Pest control but really just recreational

@Revel You can technically repair a circumcision but it's not fun.

If they were on a farm it was a whole neighbourhood thing to kill it

Because they do real damage

But mostly they'd just go out bush looking to kill them

@bananaphone it could be anyone, I think it was also referring to guys like DoubleDickingJudas as well.
