No wonder our Department of Natural Resources is so concerned about a current report of hogs running wild in one part of our State. I have been around domestic hogs far longer then I care to think sometimes, and they are an intelligent and clever animal. You need to watch them all the time. Wild ones with the same kind of intellect and survival skills on top of that,sound like a excellent hunt...

Also I was watching a television program last week. People were using catch dogs and chase dogs to hunt the hogs I believe in Florida or someplace down South. I tuned in after the program started but judging by the ferns and undergrowth, I am guessing a warm wet climate. I believe they said the breed was a pit bull that was the catch dog. Fascinating to watch the dogs do what it appears they love to do. Whether I would want to bring one in alive is another matter, but it was something to watch.

Needless to say, this hog hunting is getting me wanting to book a hunt. I just hope I have a good experience the first time out.
