Description
This is no-frills, next-level pest control â just me, my .308 Wedgetail WT25, and the Thermion 2 LRF XL60 thermal scope, taking on feral pigs and foxes under contract in rural NSW. Itâs solo work, shot off the ATV and on foot, in harsh country. No fancy edits. Just real-world thermal hunting footage, bulk kill shots, and a raw look at professional invasive species control.
đ„ What Youâll See in This Video:
âą High-res thermal footage with the Thermion 2 LRF XL60 (1024x768 HD)
âą On-the-move hunting from ATV
âą Clean and ethical dispatch of feral pigs & foxes
âą Real talk about why this work matters
Why We Do It
đ Feral pigs (est. 26 million in Australia) are tearing up land, spreading disease, and smashing native ecosystems.
đŠ Foxes (est. 7 million) are silent killers of native birds, reptiles, and small mammals. These arenât pests you can ignore â theyâre a national problem.
This isnât sport. Itâs professional vertebrate pest control. The pigs in this video are not used for human consumption â theyâre carriers of disease and left for carrion in accordance with biosecurity and environmental management practices.

âą Rifle: Wedgetail Industries WT25 (.308 Win)
âą Scope: Thermion 2 LRF XL60 Thermal
âą Binoculars: Pulsar Merger LRF XT50
