Gophers ?? NO...............damned rabbits, they were decimating the food crops during WW2 in Britain and pastures, when food production was vital. So the answer was to blast them out. You drove the tank up to a rabbit burrow and fired up the jet engine, rabbits came out the other burrow entrance, ready cooked and butchers were there to gather them up.
