I hear northerners say stuff like "wish we had hogs to hunt" I always inform them of the mess hogs make. And tell them it'll ruin their deer hunting .I don't think they believe me though.

Wasn't long ago I called a dairy farmer who grew his own silage and told him the hogs had been in his hay field. He asked me to tamp down the divots a bit if I had the time. I told him if I had a front loader and a couple of days I could repair his field some. This was about an eight Hog sounder and they pretty much destroyed an acre of pasture in one night. They also knocked over his Bee hives and destroyed them.
One of the signs I notice when the Hogs are on the move is the Doe with fawn breaking brush, often making that screaming bark and heading for the hills.
