So...
We're back at Kesskess ranch.
And we're hunting.
But tonight we're hunting something evil.
Something mysterious!
And something
very smelly.
This is a farm.
They have goats here they have livestock.
And they have skunks.
Now I've never come up close and personal with a skunk before, but I hear that their pretty smelly and pretty
nasty.
They also carry rabies.
And for the dogs here on the farm, that's extremely dangerous.
So we've had one spotted in the yard out here a couple of times. We've been out looking for
rabbits and raccoons and we've seen this nasty little fella slinking in the grass.So while we're here,
and we've go our Daystate Wolverine 303.
We thought we'd see if we could do a little bit of Varminating with it at the same time.
Now a skunk is about the same size as a well...
large grey squirrel.
But infinitely more nasty; infinitely more smelly.
They have a built in defense mechanism.
which praises a
pretty nasty abnoxious smelling fluid all over
anything that's aggressively attacked it.
So when a dog comes up and tries chasing it off the yard, the first thing it does.
Lifts that tail
and sprays away. Now we're going to try and pick one off
from a little bit of distance.
We're going to be driving around the yard in the truck.
With the NiteSite NS200. This one here in it's fetching
RealTree APG coating.
And hopefully I'm going to be able to plink it from fifty /sixty yards away.
Now they've got small heads.
Uh... I'm going to aim for a body shot if I can just to make sure the
thirty caliber fifty grain uh... JSBM propeller
does its business.
But if necessary, if we can I'm gonna try and get a head shot.
But with those beady eyes constantly moving through the grass it's not gonna be an
easy target.
However, I've got all the equipment we need: NiteSite NS200, complete with it's new lithium battery
which fits onto the side of the rifle rather than
in your pocket
uh...
This is zeroed at fifty yards shooting straight as a dye. Been on my thumbnail.
On the range it's been fantastic.
Now all we need to do.
Head out into the darkness and look out for our evil prey.
Deep in the hearts of Texas there's a dark and deadly creature lurking in the
night.
A creature so frightening,
So menacing and so incredibly stinky
that noone dares to cross it's path.
The deadly Skunk Assassin!
As the Sunk Assassin slinks through the dark Texas night.
Not a soul dare defy him.
That is until...
Team Wild's intrepid international big game hunter Ian Harford steps up to
meet the challenge.
Mr H creeps through the darkness
armed with his Daystate Wolverine air rifle
and NiteSite NS200 night vision unit. But that doesn't scare the deadly Skunk Assassin.
He continues his slightly capped mincing meander through the bush. Destroying
anything that dare come near him
There's an almighty stench. Mr H sets his sights on the stinky
slayer. The skunk threatens with it's menacing skills and a shake of it's
tail.
But Mr H has it in his cross-hairs.
He squeezes the trigger. The skunk assassin
is hit hard but refuses
to go down.
He wobbles and shakes his deadly booty. Sending out a final wave of revolting wreak
into the night.
But Mr H is good for one more shot.
And he's out for the count.
As the death throws of this evil henchman of Pepe di Pugh come to an end. Texas breathes in the
free and untainted air once more.
As we can smell,
well you cant but I can. We're about
twenty yards away from our skunk
Now I've got to be a little bit careful here.
Because these bad boys
are known to carry
rabies and all manner of nasty diseases.
Plus, they smell real bad.
So I'm gonna head over
nice and steady
And hopefully.
Stick it in this here.
Feedbag get it out the way.
Mr H moves in to bag the bad guy.
Literally.
Texas is saved from the deadly skunk assassins aerial anal aroma
attacks.
Or is it?
Okay
So...
Boy that stinks!
High level of ammonia
I have no idea what it's been spraying.
But it does not smell very good.
Ahh Jesus Christ! It stinks
rotten.
Er my God!
Team Wild wins the battle.
But in death the skunk assassin seems to have won the war. The stinky son of a gun.
Now look I've hunted all over the world,
and I've been to some pretty extreme places
but i dont think I've experienced anything quite so extreme in my hunting career.
It's trying to pick up a dead skunk.
That bad boy stinks rotten.
uh... my shoes already smell there going to have to go in the bin.He's cause enough trouble tonight.
I think I'm going to leave him where he lay.
And hopefully
we can use him as
fox bait.
If there's a fox desperate enough or stupid enough to come and eat that bad boy.
That's gross.
