Of course there is no mystery. Just trying to stimulate the Forum by journalist style headline (in contrary to Moderator's job).
Still I just wonder what was the cause of death. I did not gave the guts to examine the carcass. Could be a wound from poachers? Usually wounded or sick animals try to hide, so was the pig killed on spot on the beach?

Poachers? Do we have poachers on Lamma?

I DID poach an egg this AM. So I suppose I am one.

If I could have a chance at getting one of those hogs in a reasonable manner I would eat it.

It's only poaching if against the law, I don't know what the law is here, and if it was attacking me, I'll bet that would not be illegal.

Heeeeeeere piggy piggy piggy! Here pig pig pig pig. SOOOOOEYY!

I am not sure "if we have poachers on Lamma". Certainly if there were any they would not advertise their job. If there is and illegal logging on Lamma there may be a poaching,, which is illegal I believe

Good advice, Not very moderate at all, but appreciated.

I have hunted with the type of spear I described. Of course, hunting is defined as "pursuing an animal" I have never actually taken an animal that way, mnostly tried for racoons that were taking rations out of my rucksack as a soldier. That was valuable stuff to us.

I HAVE broke a couple of my Uncle Sams bayonets and a couple of my knives.

With my height and the length of the spear I will have to kneel on the ground and get the pig to charge, I think that will be quite a difficult situation to set up.

We could invite some of our Guangdong neighbours to deal with our wild animals. According to a report in today's SCMP they are rather partial to eating wild game - more so than any other part of China.

According to the article a staggering 84% of people from Guangzhou ate some kind of wild animal last year. I was wondering why there are fewer wading birds passing through Lamma this autumn. Now I know the likely reason.

Rarely a year has ever gone by that I haven't had wild game if some sort or another. Duck, venison, and bahr mostly. If u don't count fish and shellfish. It is all part of a normal diet in rural North America.

A friend and I tried to contour along to that beach from Lo So Shing about eight years ago, as I recall we reached it but getting there was horrible. There was a path but it was very overgrown and we chose not to follow it back, we went straight up to the cliffs on that side of Stenhouse and down the main path from there to LSS.
