Default RE: boar hunting in IL

Well there is no doubt that there are wild boars (pigs) running around (atleast) Southern Illinois, I've seen few. It was my belief that they were pretty much "open season". The last few years a fella has benn at our shotgun check-in station gathering info on them. He is a student at the college who puts the people in the check station there. Animal biology students or what have you. There was talk of a couple being shot and he seemed to be disappointed tsimply that they had been shot and not allowed to multiply rather the fact that they might have been illegally taken.

Bacon is good, eh?
