If no one hunting hogs...

There can only be as many hogs as there is food in any given area. Ask the people in east Texas if there has been an increase in hogs in the last 15 years.

NOPE....just an increase in meth-heads and poachers...

From what I have heard from some of the old timers that hunt on our place, the hogs are the same as they've always been in and around Hardin Co.

California is letting it get out of control with all of the regs they have applied to pigs.

California has let everything get out of control

If no one hunted them it would be about the same as it is now. Hunting has little to no impact on them. Look at the San Saba area (and around there) Hogs have been there for 60+ years but they have not spread much.

I think the media has everyone brainwashed into thinking they are taking over.


And before I get griped at Etc... Just look at the math. If one hog has "X" babies every "X" months..and we are already sitting at 2-4 million hogs... They would take over in the next 3-6 months. We have probably been around 2-4 million hogs in Texas for 5-10 years.

There can only be as many hogs as there is food in any given area. Ask the people in east Texas if there has been an increase in hogs in the last 15 years.

I agree, there is no epidemic just natural habitat. When they start getting hit by cars in downtown Dallas give me a shout
