[In Australia, being involved full-time in feral culling is about the only way one can acquire a Class D license to own a centerfire semiautomatic rifle.]


Given how arid the country is, I’m surprised there’s enough foliage to it to have a feral hog problem.

It can get pretty moist in the Northern Territory around Darwin. Average annual rainfall over 72 inches. Close to double the annual US average. Seasonal though, they have a distinct dry season during their winter.

Not just feral hogs either—deer, donkeys, camels, goats/sheep, kangaroos...big continent with a small population, lots of open space for farm escapees to become feral populations, and herds to protect from disease vectors.
