This is the second time this boar has knocked my feeder over. I only have him on the camera twice and both times the feeder has ended up on the ground. Feeder is now staked down with T-posts and I hope the only thing that winds up on the ground is this Boar.

He has it figured out for sure. Good luck in giving him a dirt nap.

Looks like the boar and the coon are working together in the first pic

I hope staking down the feeder with T-post works...giving you time to find that large boar and killing him.

We had similar problems with hogs on our place. We used to drive rebar into the ground and wire the rebar to the legs. Then they started dumping the feeders again. So, what we did that has worked is that we started driving the rebar deeper into the ground, and at the same angle as the leg. Basically mirroring the feeder leg, and then setting the pipe leg of the feeder over the rebar putting the rebar up into the leg. The hogs have yet to find a way dump the feeders now.

Had that problem once started welding a 2' peice of angle iron to the bottom of each leg.


Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.

Yep. You pretty much have to anchor feeders these days.

I don't ever set up a feeder without anchoring it to T-posts. And after having 2 game cameras stolen from our property I don't put up a camera without securing inside a metal box lag bolted to the tree.
