I been hearing this a lot here in East Texas.A friend went out and checked his camera over the weekend on his lease here in the Texarkana, Tx area. 70 pics taken and only 4 deer in the whole bunch ... The rest where hogs (had one that had to be 300 to 400 lbs..."Monster"). Hogs will run off the deer in a bad way unfortunately. I also heardthey will eat the young deer as well even worsening the situation. Good luck with your hog issue, and plan on adding some bacon to the fridge....lol
