Default Hog Hunting in PA?

I understand that hogs are a problem in over 40 states and increasing. Does anyone know if there is public hunting in eastern PA?

I am west of Phila. and would like to get a group of my friends together to hunt them. I do not know if they are this far east yet.

Not that I know of. I hunt Central PA and I've seen two in the last ten years. Not enough population here to actually waste time chase them. Every now and then someone says they see one though.

Maybe in a few years. I can hunt from my wheelchair by then.

I've heard of a few in the Poconos. Enough, I guess, that the game commission released a statement a year or two ago stating that you can shoot them.

I've never seen one and haven't heard of anyone hunting them.

Where abouts do you live? We live in Montgomery County and hunt in Sullivan.

There are definitely some in the Northeast PA. I've seen them first hand, but have yet to get one

Rumor has it that they are around the Michaux State Forest area as well.
