They have new definitions on Feral Hog and Wild Boar too that separates and protects the two.

Monterey is not too far from Knoxville. There are a few ranches in Cumberland county. Unfortunately, the TWRA shut us down for statewide hogs. Of course this has to happen while I am stationed overseas and could not get any last minute hog hunting in. @ hookem, they did it because people were not shooting them on sight. A lot of people were promoting their reproduction and growth in order to guide hunts for them and what not. I do think the state made a bad decision by banning hunting them though. Heck, I would not pass on one! Big pigs, small pigs, short pigs, tall pigs, I will whack any of them I see if I can!

Anywhere close to Great Smoky natl park, or the national forests near it. I remember seeing many in western north carolina when I had a small house there. That area now though is a huge sprawl of giant houses, golf courses, and country clubs. I've never walked on the tennesee side, but I heard they have a lot in the mountains close to the north carolina border.
