They should be paying $10 a hog all year round. The population would get under control real quick. Plus it would be better use of tax payer dollars then what they normally do with it.
if you get money for killing something, are you gonna go out and kill every one you see and try to eradicate them, or are you going to save some for seed for next year so you can get more money?

Hogs cannot be controlled via traditional game animal population measures due to their fecundity.
Add to that the fact that people actively trap and move them for hunting economy purposes and you have a nearly impossible problem to solve.
Missouri is actually handling their relatively new populations very well by making it illegal to hunt hogs on public lands altogether thereby de-incentivizing moving them to create new populations for guiding purposes.
