Hunting wild pigs prohibited

[oaknut]

Keep in mind that Italy allowed the introduction of the pigs they now have for hunters as the deer species were at the time being over-hunted.

No they won't run.
How do you get rid of incompetence?
You promote them...lol

That's definitely a viable solution. When I worked for GM,sometimes we had to send security personnel to escort former employees off the property on "layoff". Management's "problem children" who were more trouble than they were worth were "promoted" up the ladder to where there was no place left to go except out the gate. That way,they had no excuse to sue for wrongful dismissal. It was very innovative and very successful.

Still is done..promote them till they're are out of the union's protection (into management) then show them to the door.

Here's a recent article on the progress and lack of progress on dealing with feral hogs in USA

This is a rather unfortunate announcement.

But at least a shred of common sense remains:

I'm sure the old farmer, were he still alive, who I mention having seen bear running about the neighbourhood. Would apply the same approach in dealing with wild boar, when it comes to protecting you property. The solution was simply the 3 'S' approach. For the uninformed that stands for: Shoot, Shovel, and Shut up.

You don't stop hunting because you grow old. You grow old because you stop hunting.

A challenge to controlling these pigs whether it’s by hunting or government trapping is private land. There’s bound to be property owners who will not allow entry onto their land which will provide sanctuary for the piggies.

They may deny permission to enter initially,but,after their lands and livestock are decimated,they'll be the first ones to demand the government compensate them for damage. My answer to them wouldn't be very accommodating. "No hunting on your land? Screw you,deal with it".

I think farmers will accomodate hunters but the problem is much rural land is now large acreage estates/mansions on 50+ acres. Most of those places are owned by citiots who won't give a rip that their "nature retreat" is infested with hogs. Some of them are even stupid enough they will like it. Those places will act as reservoirs and once established as hog havens it will be impossible to to deal with the problem.

While not specific to the hog problem i have watched my township evolve over the last 50 years from a community of farm people to now largely former urban dwellers who are classic citiot NIMBYs. When i was a kid i used to ride my bike around the township knocking on doors with my 22 and fishing rod and fished the farm ponds and shot ground hogs on pretty well every farm within 10 miles of our farm. No way a kid can do that now. Azzhats in their beamer SUVs want no part of that now. Almost time to call it a day and get the $%^# out of Dodge.

Oh those were the good times and even the kids had a lot of respect for the landowners.

I haven't enjoyed the monster homes popping up in our area either but those "citiots" didn't steal the land. It was sold to them by farmers and landowners many of whom secured a comfortable retirement for themselves and gained a measure of financial security for their families when they subdivided and sold their land.
