I like that you don't let them go to waste, that's great. That's really good meat.

Trapping them is the most effective way to control them. People build whole corral type traps where the entire group will get locked in with one way entries. Of course only set when you can check daily, but having a large trap like that live with bait will take care of your problem much better than shooting them. They are pretty wise and will just move on to come back later if they get any hunting pressure.
