Change from “states that don’t have them, yet” to those that do. Looks like there is no stopping them. Shoot every dang one of them. I firmly believe hogs have displaced the deer on our little farm. Haven’t seen a deer all summer.
I was told years ago that there are two kinds of landowners, one with feral hogs and one that will have feral hogs eventually.
Yikes looks bigger than 150,.. So does someone "hate thy neighbor? " While I was in Northern Utah a hunt ranch "lost " a bunch of feral hogs
Probably jumped out of a transport truck headed to a high fence game farm. Never seen a lone female hog, never.
What I don't understand is that it sounds like Idaho doesn't yet consider it to be an invasive species and they want you to call IDF&G rather than shoot it.
Bad idea on Idaho’s part. Once pigs get established, they dominate the wildlife feed. Idaho needs to visit the southeastern states and check out the damage a herd can do in one night. I now wish Louisiana would have come out with guns blazing on pigs from the start.
