Talked pig hunts today at the fam gathering.
Wouldn't that imply they left? When you're dealing with animals as elusive as they are dangerous, ones that also happen to multiply like Catholic rabbits, the population tends to go in one direction I'm pretty sure. Sexually mature in 4-5 months(!).
Hogs are a legit danger to both life and limb, in some cases your livelihood can be ruined overnight. As a bonus they spread diseases. Count me among those who would like to know of an alternative to firearms. I have a hog spear but that really only addresses one pig, maybe two. I think if I go on a pig hunt I'd rather shoot them from a distance and spare the dogs. Since I can't hit shit with .500 pistol that means semi auto rifle.
