“hogs”

Hogs continue to spread throughout the country, doing untold amounts of property damages—leading some hunters to take to the air in a control effort.

Sid Miller, Texas Department of Agriculture (DOA) commissioner, proposed a change to the Texas Administrative Code in an attempt to control the 5 million feral hogs in the state. The destructive hogs are estimated to cause upwards of $52 million in damages a year in Texas alone, and Miller suggested using poison, specifically Kaput Feral Hog Lure, a bait mixed with the blood thinner warfarin that is normally reserved for humans but happens to be lethal to pigs.

An AR, a FLIR optic and a crossbow do the trick on pigs in the land of the Osceola.

The state's proposed changes could ban hog hunting on 2.5 million acres of public land.
