What about brucellosis? Is it reliably destroyed by cooking?
...one never should shoot a Hog behind the front leg.
Question: Planning on hunting hogs if I get a chance later this weekend on a spot of land that I know they frequent. Ive never done this except when hunting deer. Will a 12 gauge witha slug work and how does one go about cleaning them? Similar to a deer?
If you give free hunts, some people take it to mean anyone and everyone can hunt.
dakotasin has a great point. People/farmers whine about an invasive and destructive species yet don't want FREE help eradicating the problem. I feel for them, but just a little. Kinda like having a broke down in a car and having someone kindly offer to fix it free and the owner sez you need to pay me for the privilege of fixing my problem. OOp's there goes my sympathy for the landowners....
Feral Hogs become a plague wherever they establish regarding Farmers and Ranchers
Well, I not so sure that it's a plague to deer and other native wildlife. If they are, then that's a very valid concern I'd be interested in learning more about. Are there any scientific studies that prove that any species (deer or otherwise) are adversely impacted in a material way by hogs? I'd like to see it. Seems to me, anecdotally, that in the hog areas around here, deer thrive just as well as in the non-hog areas.and Deer Hunters and Native Wildlife.
Well, maybe this is something - I'd like to know how common this is - seems like the deer could run in 30 seconds way farther than the slower hogs could catch up and find her when she is about to give birth - any scientific studies or proof that show that this happens and how often in reality?Eating fawns as they fall from their mother's wombs, is a vicious, predatory event that Feral Hogs thrive upon,
in addition to eating almost anything a deer would eat.
Well, that's why they get subsidies from Washington. See above / boo hoo. Maybe they should sell some of that land to others who want to move to the sticks, so they'd be mere millionaires instead of multi-millionaires, from all they land they inherited. Maybe some of them might even have to (gasp!) change careers like so many others among us do, which is a natural part of the free-market economy (career changes). And I'm all broke up about Archer Daniels Midland's profits, as far as the big corporate farmers are concerned.Rooting up to two feet deep in Farmers' fields removes a great deal of farming profits.
Wallowing fouls the waters of streams and creeks, yet this a favored hobby of Hogs.
I'd like to see that "fact" recognized by a scientific study. Maybe they do, so I'd appreciate any links to impartial data showing that.That Wild Pigs supplant Whitetails is a recognized fact,
