This is interesting...I saw a thing on either Discovery or History channel...one of those documentary stations... it was an hour giving information about how wild pig populations are growing like Topsy and getting way out of control and becoming quite dangerous.

The more common smaller wild pigs have been crossed with the imported Russian wild pigs which for one reason or another have been let go wild, and they are huge and very aggressive!

It sounds like the spreading of the scourge of the take-over of the domestic bees with African killer bees.

According to my other half, there are also other invasive species which are creating havoc in the environment such as walking catfish, zebra snails, starlings, kudzu (a plant,)and probably others.

We definitely need to encourage a change in our hunting license structures to handle the growth this article is referencing about the deer population...and it wouldnt hurt to allow that to happen as well with the wild pig population.

In Western Pennsylvania it is pretty much open season on wild pigs. They are viewed as a very destructive invasive that is competing for the same food as the wild turkey.

I’ve read that Kudzu is actually quite nutritious and could be used as a food source...I also read someplace that is has potential as a high grade biodesal fuel source!
