A Hog Pandemic?
« on: March 17, 2009, 01:34:22 PM »
Just got my American Hunter mag. It looks like our southern brothers have a PIG problem.

Hunters Needed For Temporary Assignment!!  ;D  study says there are pigs in 36 states, most of the population is in the south.

Texas is pig heaven :o
Texas wildlife and parks say there are 1.5 to 2 million pigs in the lone star state.

Where do I sign up ;D

They are an ENORMOUS problem for land owners.... they do so much damage, and you cant seem to kill them faster then they can breed.

Four years ago, I'd never seen a wild hog on our land in the mountains in southeastern Oklahoma.

Now I see them just about every time I'm out hunting, fishing, working, etc.  We've killed several during recent months, but now we're looking at trapping because we can't keep up.  I'd agree with "pandemic".

Hey, why didnt he just shoot it "gangsta style" with a Deuce Deuce? A .44 kinda seems like overkill. ;D
