5 years ago there weren't any hogs on our hill farm. Three years ago we started seeing hog sign, I shot two young boars that sept. Now there is sign everywhere we go. They are rooting up the whole farm now. Talked with a game warden for our area last year, he said that several years ago about 20 got loose a few miles to our north and the population has just exploded from there. I sure wish we could get rid of them, but it dont look like thats gonna happen.
