Instead of spending $1m to get rid of these critters why not just lift all of the restrictions on hunting them and then let hunters get rid of them for free?

There aren't really any restrictions now in Texas on feral pigs. In December my brother brought me one to cure and smoke. I'm still eating it. I'm doing my part. ;)

In florida they have lifted almost all restrictions and still can’t get rid of them. They breed very fast.

I live about 15 miles west of Port St. Lucie, Florida,
From here to West Palm Beach there are approximately a million wld pigs be they decendants of formerly domestic or wild hogs.
Fact is you can shoot them any time any where cept in some city limits day or night.
I live in a private airport community and they can become a real danger. We’ve had them get well over 400 pounds and boy can they tear up a yard, runway or even a car.

Missouri has no regs on hog hunting; maybe with the million they could send me some ammo since I can’t find any in the stores.

Better yet, put a bounty on the pigs. Start it at $50/head.
That will get you 20,000 dead feral pigs for the million.

Put a bounty on them, hunters will get rid of the quick...thats how it use to be with vermin...Now they make regulations so you have to pay (license) to get rid of vermin.
