With the problem these will become, I'm sure hoping there will be a bounty on the Boar....the Hunters are doing to be doing the Ministry a HUGE favour removing them.

The really crazy part is that all of the "Wild Boar" in the southern states are not actually wild boar (Russian Boar). They are descendants of feral populations from the Spanish and European farmers that settled. Pigs are very adaptable, that is the problem here, they can and will build a population and by the time there are regular sightings they will already be established.
Mostly true but outfitters with questionable ethics have also released Russian Boar in some areas of the southern US during the last 50 years so there are some Russian genetics mixed in here and there.
The wilderness is not a stadium where I satisfy my ambition to achieve, it is the cathedral where I worship.

From what I read, they brought wild boar, not feral, in the early 1900's in game reserves for the purpose of hunting. They have been there for a very long time...

True, there are some, some escaped as well, but no true "Wild Boar" genetics in the southern States.
Take a look on youtube about wild boar drives in Eastern Europe, really cool.
The problem is how much damage they can do, feral or wild, it does not really matter.

Wild boar in captivity would not be considered wild after a generation or two. If these Russian wild boar got out or were released they would be feral pigs with wild boar genetics. This is not a whole lot different than having a Tamworth get our, they just look different.

My question is why is MNRF not releasing the same notice to hunters that was sent last September for Eastern Ontario. No reason why you can't hunt them on a small game license. For you guys/gals living in the area it may be worth a call to find out if they will allow you to hunt them on your license.
