  • Wild boar, also known as feral pigs, were not native to the United States. Wild boars were first introduced to the continent in the 1500s by Spanish explorers, who brought domestic pigs with them to use as a food source. Over time, some of these domestic pigs escaped and became feral, adapting to the wild and thriving in various regions throughout the country. Today, there are an estimated 8,900,000 wild boars in America, causing significant damage to crops and natural habitats, and posing a threat to both wildlife and human populations.

And Sounders "bed down" together during the daylight hours in shallow dirt depressions the individuals root in dense brushy "safe" areas usually dark and covered with briars. And when the pregnant sow prepares to farrow (have her pigs) she'll make a "nest" under a fallen tree top or very dense Yaupon bushes usually covered with briar. She'll carry dead grasses and straw in her mouth to line the depression for as many as a dozen stripped piglets. Amazing animals. Almost perfectly designed. Their weaknesses are poor A/C systems - they need water to cool themselves often. They don't jump as well as other animals. They have fairly good eyesight but don't use their vision well, because they rely so much on their acute hearing and sense of smell. But very smart and cautious. Smart a dogs.

      The federal government is very concerned. However, most family farms are in red states and Republicans want federal "hands off" federal mandated acts in red states. The feral hogs are found often in great numbers on lands controlled by the federal government. These things are now being found in Canada. It may be partially due to weather getting warmer or genes for long thick hair now recessive in domestic pigs that are being triggered by being free.....or a combination. But you're right they are a nightmare. Pigs are very intelligent, very fecund, adaptable, and they omnivorous and not fussy eaters. A sow can farrow 2 litters a year. If you see any on your land .....try to kill them!

    I lived in rural Spain last year and always wondered about the gun shots I heard. Wild boar is supposedly common here. I suspect that is what I was hearing. With no handguns legal, and me being a resident, but not citizen, I didn't look into gun ownership. But it did stop me from hiking in certain areas. Too bad we can't commercialize boar meat in USA. I guess if it was profitable, we wouldn't have this problem. I love pork, and it's a shame we can't utilize what appears to be abundant in nature. Crazy, as it's obviously hormone and antibiotic free naturally fed meat.

      Well, I don't know about research, but i'm sure we could conclude a few probabilities. There is an impact, but I don't think its enough to notice anything negative. nothing I can think of. If anything, I see a few ecological positives. But many negative problems with humans. I suppose that humans are also part of the ecological though.
      They eat mostly vegetation. They are not an apex predator, but have the potential to be a predator, but I doubt they are good at it. They can't catch deer. Maybe rabbits could be a good pray for them. Rabbits, another invasive species. These hogs can kill all the rabbits they want to.
      I could see a major impact if they introduce the perfect predator for these guys. Its interesting I think. Would need to be big, and fast. Bears might naturally fill that spot. Give enough time, and bears have all they can eat. They are very fast, big enough to kill the biggest bors. Growing bear populations may become another human problem.
      I'm curious about the rate at whiich these bors are evolving intelligence. I think thats very interesting. They breed like crazy, they are already very smart animals. they kill 60% of them every year. Looks like an enviroment for rapid evolution. Give it 200 years, you might have some crazy smart pigs.

    Most do not hunt wild boars/pigs. They are trapped and killed. Before we sold the farm we trapped around 20 a year. Most of the other farms in the area also trapped so it kind of kept them under control. Season is always open no limit kill as many as you can, no need to worry about making a dent in the population. Right now it is just about keeping some kind of control over the massive numbers.

    My hunting property is overrun with boar in South Ga. We have hunted and trapped them for years to no avail. They are making it very hard on the deer population because they eat everything. They also kill and eat fawn. A disease is the only thing I believe that would be able to wipe them out.

      Do you hunt them often?

      @@tony98discovery pretty often. Our main focus is deer but trying to keep the pig population in check is part of that. A female pig is able to breed when it's 6months old so they quickly overrun everything. There are several other hunting clubs around ours and all of them shoot and trap pigs as well. Nothing but a disease will wipe them out.

      Perhaps a contraceptive could be added to the feed and reduce the number of pigs born, could be done by the state wildlife agents because of the damage these hogs do to the farms and forests.

      @@francesacoy4730 i think in order for something like that to work they would have to regularly eat that feed. I don't think that's really even possible. Definitely don't see a state paying for it. They don't care about the damage to agriculture because they don't have to pay for it.

    It's crucial to take measures to prevent the spread of wild boars into new areas to protect ecosystems.

      You're absolutely correct. Preventing the spread of wild boars into new areas is crucial to protect ecosystems from their potentially disruptive impact. Implementing proactive measures, such as proper fencing, monitoring, and early detection, can help contain their expansion and preserve the integrity of natural habitats. It's important to prioritize ecosystem protection and work together to prevent further environmental damage.

      There's this centuries old invention, called the GUN, that works really well. There are a couple of older inventions, called the crossbow, and the bow and arrow, that work tolerably well. Individual hunting and trapping work REALLY well. But given their reproduction rates, this alone can only mitigate, not solve, the problem. I recommend that the Texas Governor call up the Texas national guard, and direct the commander to eliminate the feral pig population, starting with the herds near to cities, working to the most afflicted farms and ranches, and work out a grid plan to wipe out feral pigs grid block by grid block, donating the meat to food banks and kitchens for the homeless, and the skins to any leather processors that want it. It would take several years, but the ongoing playoff of reduced crop damage, wildlife habitat restoration, and the building of tracking, reconnaissance, and mission planning skills of the state guard would be worth it. It would also develop that most valuable of all combat skills of all, the ability to hit a running rifle target.
