Thread: Texas wild pig hunting

Im watching a doco on sky about the plague of feral pigs in Texas, I've just tried doing some research as to why there are so many, what the hunting rules etc are, it seems hunters can kill as many as they want when they want, and hunting licenses don't cost much, So why the hell are the pigs over there exploding in numbers? the only thing I can think is perhaps its illegal to dump the guts etc where you kill a pig because of Brucellosis disease over there, so perhaps it costs money to take a pig to a registered site to gut and skin, but I think they can sell their wild pigs to processors...Anyone know just out of curiosity?
There is no way pigs here in NZ would get to the numbers they have in Texas because we hunt the shit out of them.
