247 Feral Animals with the CFMOTO U6 EV

247 Feral Animals removed during a massive real-world vertebrate pest control operation while field testing the new CFMOTO U6 EV in steep Australian hill country. This thermal hunting and long-range shooting video documents professional feral animal control on private agricultural land using the CFMOTO U6 EV as a mobile night hunting platform across grain feeders, rolling hills and large-scale farm country. Over the course of the operation we accounted for: • 146 Feral Pigs • 85 Fallow Deer • 15 Foxes • 1 Feral Cat Total removed: • 247 feral animals during one extended pest control contract. This was not a polished showroom review. The CFMOTO U6 EV was put straight into operational use in cold, windy conditions while covering large areas at night using thermal optics and multiple rifle platforms. One thing became immediately obvious — the stealth advantage of the EV platform is real. Being able to reposition without engine vibration, engine noise or repeated four-stroke restarts genuinely changes how close you can work around animals at night. At the same time, this video also honestly covers the realities of EV use in remote pest control operations, particularly around battery range, charging management and steep terrain. All work conducted with landholder permission and in accordance with state regulations. Location details are intentionally withheld. What you will see in this video: • CFMOTO U6 EV field testing • Thermal pig hunting • Long-range deer shooting • Fox and feral cat control • EV hunting buggy pros and cons • Real-world Australian pest control This is professional vertebrate pest management focused on reducing agricultural damage, protecting crops and managing invasive species populations across private farmland.

These animals destroy crops, contaminate water systems, damage fencing and heavily impact farming operations. They are also carriers of diseases such as brucellosis and leptospirosis, creating genuine biosecurity and health concerns for both livestock and people working around them. Pigs are not taken for human consumption on this trip. In large-scale professional pest control operations the priority is rapid population reduction across broad areas, not recreational meat hunting. In the Australian bush, very little goes to waste for long. Foxes and feral cats are among Australia’s most destructive invasive predators, heavily impacting native wildlife and livestock operations. Feral cats alone kill enormous numbers of native birds, reptiles and mammals every year, while foxes continue to heavily affect lambing rates and vulnerable ground-dwelling species across rural Australia. Ongoing professional control programs remain critical for both environmental and agricultural protection. Deer numbers throughout parts of NSW have also exploded over recent years, creating major crop, pasture and fencing impacts across farming country. While I do recover some meat where practical, there is simply no realistic way to process and utilise every animal removed during large-scale contract shooting operations like this. The priority on these jobs is effective pest reduction and limiting agricultural damage across the properties involved.
