Default RE: hunting wild boar in NY

There have been articles in the Syracuse paper for the last couple of years regarding the hogs. There have been a few lucky deer hunters who have shot a couple. There were pics of a couple 200 pounders. They are of a small population of escapees that are starting to expand their range.
The first year the article said they could be shot no laws against it. This past year the article was a bit muddy on if it was legal. I do beleive if it is on your property you can shoot it no problems. I had a buddy who shot a sika deer while I was hunting with him on his farm up north. And the CEO we talked to said it was legal. Not so sure about public land though.

Anyhow the area is in the Otisco Valley. I would not mind having some around here. What a bonus for the freezer that would be!!
