How many states have Wild Hogs

jrfrmn · 03-23-2006, 08:05 PM

Question Please! Has anyone heard about isolated areas of some states having Wild Boars that have escaped and multiplied to huntable numbers. I know about Wisconsin, but I can't get any information. I heard about Indiana and Ohio. Does anybody know anything about these area's or any others. I have read about Southern Illinois having some, but not confirmed. Any help is appreciated.

I know that we lack the wild hogs in Minnesota but I know that Canada has some areas that have had problems. Russia is pretty cold and they live there.

They're in a lot of states now!! And it won't stop anytime soon. If you want to know about specific areas up there, contact Fish and Game and they will give you the info on where they were last seen. They want them all gone anyway. It's gonna be hard though. Even in places where we know they are in big numbers, they'll still evade you for long periods of time.
