npalen said:I'm going to be the devils advocate here and say that this method of rounding up livestock on open range could be (is) very useful. Yes, this guy was probably just harassing them for the fun of it.
Anyone who has rounded up cattle, for example, on open range knows that it is no easy task. Horses have been used for this purpose for centuries. Four wheelers (ATV's) are used extensively for roundup these days but there are places where even they can't go. The RC craft would be useful for flushing that errant cow and calf out of a thicket without injury to the critters or the person.
Rounding up feral hogs is another potential use in areas where they have become a menace.
Yep, agree. Helicopters are used extensivly in Australia for rounding up cattle but this guy was just being a ****.
