A warning to pigs and deer that if they come 'round here, this'll be what happens to them...


I dunno

I hadn't heard of the, F' you to farmers, one....

never seen it until I moved to Taranaki - pig skins on fences road signs etc - me pig hunting mate here reckoned it used to mean dont bother hunting here the mob gone or the boar that was here has been taken - well now I reckon its just a bloody wank - same as driving thru town with a nice piece of pork slowly going off strapped onto top of dog box in the sun instead of getting it straight into a chiller
