Hog hunts

[gunter]

It was a last minute hunt and there was an opening so i took it.

Why did you choose this outfitter?

I don't think any one is raising pigs down south.
They are like rats.
This is the reason you don't need a permit to hunt them.
Let us know how it went.
Good luck on your hunt.

This seems to be the most decent one with no fenced in and/or raised pigs. They also got good reviews (check out their Facebook page and YouTube). I hope I choose well - I will report back after the hunt.

Got to Gracemont Oklahoma at noon today for a hog hunt. Guide Denny took us on a spot and stalk bow hunt. After a couple of close encounters we finnaly conected. It isn't really easy by bow. I'll post pictures when I get back home.

Nicely done.

Thanks species. Brady hunted, with me being an observer. We chased them for 4 hours, they are quite weary when stalked. I would recommend this type of hunt to all!! Place is called "No Mercy Ranch". 2 hours west of Oklahoma City.

there have been sights all over Ontario. I've contacted the mnr and this is the response

Thank you for your inquiry and we apologize for the delay in responding to your email.

Wild boars are not native to North America; however, they are farm-raised for their meat and can escape captivity. Escaped wild boars have high reproductive capacity and are able to survive northern winter conditions, so their numbers can increase quite rapidly. Wild boars pose a challenge in some North American jurisdictions.

In Ontario the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act requires owners to report escaped wild boar to the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF). We also ask members of the public to contact their local MNRF district office and report free ranging wild boar sightings.

If owners of escaped wild boar cannot be determined, private landowners can kill free roaming wild boar in protection of property. Property owners or a class agent, as defined under the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act (FWCA), may kill escaped wild boars in protection of property without approval from MNRF. Hunters may kill free roaming escaped wild boars under the authority of a small game hunting licence, however all relevant federal, provincial and municipal legislation (e.g., trespassing, discharge of firearms by-laws, firearm licensing requirements) still apply.

Wild boars may weigh 200 pounds or more and may be aggressive. All wild animals are unpredictable by nature, so the public should avoid contact with these animals. The local police department should be notified if public safety becomes a concern.
