re: Wild boars in Baton Rouge

Anywhere in La. where there are woods, there will be boars. When I was a kid growing up in da Parish, there was a small patch of woods between my subdivision and the next one. It was only 1/2 sq. mile of woods, with no other large wooded areas nearby. We searched those woods for snakes on almost a daily basis for years and had no clue there were pigs there. Then a buddy of mine showed me a pic of a 300 lb. sow that he shot there. Started going out at night, and they were all over back there. Once you knew they were there, they weren't hard to find in the day or night.
