Default IL hog hunting

Sounds like they're taking the same approach Ks wildlife& parks did!!! Now we cant hunt them at all !!! They made it illegal to hunt hogs at all!!! unless you are a landowner then you have to send the names of people to hunt them on your land !!!We cant run them with dogs,& we cant eat them!!! Our tax dollars pay for the helicopter hunts, but sportsman aren't allowed to hunt them !!! Are KsWP&T said they're were people turning hogs loose and charging people to hunt them if this was true why not fine them ,we already have laws on the books for that !!! Watch them so that they don't move that way, Taking away your rights to hunt hogs at all !!!If you ever hunted hogs you know you very rarely see hogs ,or if you do they're a flash by time you see them and you think can I shoot them is it season ,they will be gone !!! Any sportsman knows a dead feral hog is the only good hog !!! It always happens to hunters take away your rights to kill a pig when you get the chance !!! How many people will shoot a pig during deer season when they're hunting a big buck or on a paid hunt !!! It takes people that like to kill pigs that will spend extra money to hunt them !!! Your guides and outfitters are the ones that spend the time out in the field ,there are the ones that know were the hogs are!!! This is a full time job for most let them charge but for a hunt, not per pig !!!Even in Texas they're are places helicopters cant get them out of !!!It takes dedicated hog hunters to kill them ,hounds ,automatic shotguns, rifles, bows and bait!!! Hardest trophy pig to kill 20-30# pig !!! Think how much money Tx is getting from the sales of shells and sporting supplies that helihunters and hog hunters spend tax dollars that go back to they're DNR!!! Go get'em Ted and pig man givem hell!!! pissed in Ks!!!
