Think of the wild pig problem the same as any other pest, like rats or mice, or hey! that spider crawling on your left ankle. (Ha! Made you look!)
There was a time when hunters wished they had some wild pigs to hunt. So, they released domestic pigs so they could breed and become feral hogs (the pigs, not the hunters). The hunters got what they wished for. The farmers aren't pleased. Texas wouldn't be Texas if there wasn't a range war of some kind or another going on. It's what they do down there.
Then again the feral hog problem isn't limited to just Texas. There's a reason the University of Arkansas mascot is a Razorback.
Rats!Didn't quite make me look LOL
Rats!
You've got an ant in your drink.

I'm probably going to get "shot" down for this one LOL, but here goes
I couldn't watch all the video, but I scanned the frames and picked it up again at the end ......
I didn't see anywhere that they collected the meat .... isn't that naughty? I thought hunters only hunted for meat
Another comment is .... how do they know that they killed the pig outright and not just wounded it and left it in pain
Be nice
Took me a few minutes...........
Got me.......Idiot.
Michigan law regarding feral swine. It looks like the DNR is declaring war on them. None too soon either. We must not let these pigs get established in the State.
[SIZE=+1]Rules for Shooting Feral Swine
[/SIZE][SIZE=-1]What is a feral swine?
A feral swine is a free-ranging pig. Feral swine are considered exotic, nuisance species and cause damage to agricultural lands and the environment. Feral swine can also have negative impacts on wildlife and livestock.
Is it legal to take feral swine?
Yes, if you are legally hunting game during an open season (of any type) and see a feral swine you may pursue that animal if you wish, following all the regulations of the open season which you are hunting. (Please note: There is an open season of some species 365 days of the year.) For open seasons and regulations, please view the most current Michigan Hunting and Trapping Digest.
What is the new law, Public Acts 69-71 of 2010?
The new law does not establish a hunting season on feral swine. Public Acts 69-71 of 2010 declare feral swine a nuisance species and allow for the opportunistic take of any free-ranging pig running at large. Under this law, a person with a concealed pistol permit (CPL) or valid hunting license can kill swine running at large on public property; landowners or other authorized persons can kill swine running at large on private property; and local animal control officers and law enforcement can kill swine running at large on either public or private property.
When can I legally shoot a feral swine?
Any time during regular hunting hours and when actively night-hunting raccoon, opossum, fox and coyote. (Please be sure to follow all day and night hunting regulations for the season in which you are hunting game. Refer to the current Michigan Hunting and Trapping Digest for details.)
What type of hunting license do I need to pursue feral swine?
Any type of valid hunting license or a concealed pistol permit is needed on public property. Possession of either of these allows the holder to be in legal possession of the firearm associated with the license or permit on public land.
If I have a CPL, do I also need a hunting license?
No, you do not need a hunting license in conjunction with the CPL.
Can I shoot feral swine on private property?
If you are the landowner or have permission of the landowner, you may shoot feral swine on private property at any time. It is not necessary to possess a hunting license or CPL to kill feral swine on private land.
