Larry Jarma on the frontlines in fight against feral hogs

ND Mike I agree. I knew that there was a problem with hog population in the south, but I didn’t know it was like that. That’s worse than our rut in Kansas and all the time.
JohnG5 I am glad we at least have an open season on them, no bag limit and can shoot them day or night.

ND Mike it was 49 total. That’s the most I ever saw trapped at 1 time. I didn’t think we would ever get them all hauled off.

HerbcoFood Sounds like a really fun time!

HerbcoFood thank goodness it’s the same way here since most are nocturnal now. We do have to apply for a night shoot permit but it’s easy to get and if you’re in a group only 1 person has to have a permit.

cdavis Does the permit cost money, how long is it good for etc?

HerbcoFood it’s free and lasts a year from the date issued.

cdavis What is the reasoning for the permit, is it to gauge how many people are actually hog hunting?

HerbcoFood it’s to keep every Tom Dick and Harry from running around at night with a light and a gun.

cdavis Probably a good idea to try to control it somewhat but do they limit permits or do you have to qualify some way?

From what I have been reading the larger wild pigs are not far removed from being domesticated. Why would any breed these or have them as pets?

From what I have read, domestic hogs that escape into the wild and reproduce will quickly take on all the characteristics of wild hogs within a couple of generations.

Just for anyone who is thinking of a “bounty” program, you can’t convince me that this wouldn’t happen here as well https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perverse_incentive

Jonathon Just about anything for the almighty dollar. Sad, but all too true.

That is why it is illegal for the public to hunt them in Kansas

bocephus I just called the Oklahoma department of wildlife answered some questions they had. I’m sure they checked to make sure I had a valid hunting license. I was told to call my local game warden to let him know what area I was hunting that night. But after 2 calls he told me to just call if I ran into a problem.
-
HerbcoFood I think just a valid hunting license.

HerbcoFood also written landowners permission on your person.
