They are considered a nuisance animal and there is not limit on the number you can kill. Same for Oklahoma and Arkansas. Now that you sited in you camera, site in your rifle.

They tear up my yard from time to time. If the HOA Police allowed it, I would shoot them on sight.

They really do a lot of damage. Someone needs to invent some sort of birth control. Guns and dogs are not getting it done..

The drought appears to have put a dent in "American Hoggers," though.

Growing up, I would love going to the ranch. We would see how long we could ride one. I think the record was 2 seconds. Couldn't think of ever putting a condom on one......it would lend a hole new meaning to "squeal like a pig". LOL - good one Jake!
