Got a boar spear I can borrow?

As someone who has hunted boar I believe the solution is just that - get hunters in the area. The boars can be eliminated where that's what the land managers want.

A word of caution - forget about spearing boar. They are strong and very tough. In fact, a determined boar can inflict considerable damage on an unsuspecting hunter who thinks he's looking at "piggies."

For a descriptive story of what these "pigs" can do, feel free to Freepmail me.

I rather meant a "BOAR SPEAR". Hardened oak. 3 foot steal point. Haft gifted with a crossbar, 6 feet from the operator. Tine on the south end, for planting same.

Though i've never killed one, I did track wild boar in the Everglades, Big Cypress during dry season when I was a kid. Once one of these guys goes into the thicket growth of a hammock, the only way i'd go in after them is with a large caliber handgun.
