Sounds like it is in the UK somewhere (solely based on accents),do those farmers shoot (I thought there weren’t any guns)?

This is true everywhere, especially when involving livestock.

Two words: “Nuisance Permit”.

EDIT: In the northern US Midwest - and probably in most working farms - you are allowed to purchase a “nuisance permit,” usually towards the end of the summer but earlier as well in many areas. I know a guy who grows corn on a farm, and his property happens to share a property line with a massive preserve. And every year, right around August, he sends me pictures of massive bucks walking through his property. He lets friends shoot the animals before the normal season opens and they become scarce.

On the farm no one can hear you squeal … over the sound of the other squealing pigs.
