honestly, I am not crazy about poisoning any wildlife. If pigs are a nuisance, then we need to figure out a way to make people want to kill more pigs.

Put a $1000 reward on every pig killed and then you would put a real dent in the population. You would have to make it worth the time of every hunter. Poison is the way to go, and I hope they completely wipe them out.

You don't think TX has tried? They allow hunting from helicopters.

I just don't believe that's it's possible to control them without a natural predator in the system.

2 decent solutions:

1. Put a bounty on them like we had on nutria rats in the early 2000s (I paid a lot of bills in college with those tails)

2. Mandate that homeless/men's/women's/orphan/refugee shelters can only serve feral pork. Heck, even add it to the Starving African Children's program while we're at it. Feed the entire world's hungry on it.

We do these 2 things & feral hogs will be gone by 2018.
