# she's a farm girl, this was right in the head
there was blood jetting out from between its eyes

then I tried to finish it off by smashing its head with a log

its head got much flatter but no more dead

# crikey
have you thought about humane capture traps, then release them miles away from where you live?

a friends mum used to capture them in the humane capture traps, drop it in a water butt and put the lid on til the noises had finished.

# drowning
is apparently the preferred method of despatch by the forestry commission. It's supposed to be a quick/clean/cheap way of doing it.

Technically though, being vermin, you could flay them alive with sharp sticks because the normal animal cruelty laws don't apply. *

# Agreed
Or at the very least, have the courage to despatch the hairy fucker with a spade if you only wing it.

I've picked a couple off the roof of my house with a .177 after they started shitting in our loft and ate through the insulation on the water tank, jamming the filler valve and flooding the house while we were on holiday.

Shooting really is too good for 'em.

# see above - this thing was pretty indestructible
I made every effort to despatch it, it just wouldn't die

# mutant
sounds like you saved humanity from a chromosome challenged mutation. They normally just die the minute you hit them...
