anyone see a hog?

[YFKI1983]

Im wondering if anyone has seen any of the feral hogs in the southern tier?? I hunt 4o and havent seen any. You think they will really be a problem?

I hunt 4o and 4r and spend a lot of time in the woods and have never heard them or seen them yet.

I hunt in 7R and 7S and i personall y have not seen any yet. That being said, rumor has it they have been seen in the Cortland area, also near Appalaichin. if they are to get a sustainable population we could be in trouble as a female can have a large ammount of piglets per litter(up to 30) if i read right. and 2-3 litters per year. this is one reason they are worried about them establishing here, if they do they will boom and be hard to erradicate and they are know for demolishing land where they inhabbit. look at florida, they have ruined vast acerage and they dont have a open season and no bag limit on them down there.

It's a scary thought but oh so tasty! Still not worth the damage the would cause.

Heard over the weekend a 350lb one was getting butcherd over the weekend from 7j. I recall reading and article that there were 200 reported being killed this year out of 7j in Cortland county. I will go digging and see if I can find that article again.
