Getting rid of introduced species
#15
Yeah Paul F, if the ranchers REALLY wanted the problem to go away, it would be fairly easy. But they want the hunting fees, which aren't being generated anyway, more than they want the hogs gone.

Someone in our sportsman's club went to Texas last summer and was allowed to hunt for free in a relatives' neighbor's farm. He took an AK set-up like a sniper rifle, and barely made a dent in the population. They had to take off-road quads and hunt in group of 2s and 3s so THEY were safe from the packs of hogs. Dozens in a group sometimes. Dozens against one guy could be deadly for the hunter.
