I met a dude that operates a buying station for wild hogs. After talking with him briefly, he openly admitted to turning sows out behind his house that were too small for him to mess with. If I'm not mistaken, this is against the law. He is taking trapped, transported sows and tunring them out in the wild behind his house. I would like to hear what you have to say on this matter.
I sure hope he lives close to me!!! Bless his heart! |

THe responses I'm reading are interesting to say the least and I really see no point in going on.
However I will say this... The main problem with what is going on here is that hogs are coming from various locations that may have diseases and are being turned loose next door to me. Once I thought that practise was no big deal. I have a very good freind that is a taxidermist. He litterly almost died a few months ago from brucellosis and typhoid. He will be sick the rest of his life and its not like I expect anyone to care about it but I feel this is a pratice(the release of pigs in other areas) that should not go on.

no one should ever turn hogs loose. This aint bassfishing boys.The buyer I use kills any hogs he cant use. I know he shot 60 one day. Any ethical hoghunter would not catch and release any wild hog. The pig population does not need uor help.

Managing a hog herd is unethical? Preacher1, according to you I am a unethical hunter. Hog management is not unethical in my eyes and getting Brucilosis is a chance anyone takes when they mess with a wild hog. Its in the same category as Lime desease and ticks, and getting struck by lightning in my book. Lots of places need the hogs killed and gone I agree but not all of them. Im all about controlling the population in any place but that doesnt always involve killing every hog you catch. Dont get me started on hog hunting ethics. There are more irresponsible hog hunters running around in the woods these days than ever. Poaching, disrespect and no regard for land owners are a much bigger problem than cutting a few hogs loose. Do you think every legal deer that walks past you in the woods should be shot? Do you think that every bass in a given body of water should be released? It all depends on were you hunt and fish, regulations and land owner requirments in my book. If keeping a few bass to eat from a overpopulated pond and releasing good barrs on a given property that doesnt have many hogs is unethical then throw me under the bus. Just dont call me hungry!!!  |

The one thing that I really hate is when people try to put their opinions on you. If you go and kill every hog you catch then thats fine, just don't try and tell me the way I am doing it is wrong!
If it is not DIRECTLY hurting you then keep it to yourself....

you guys are amazing. I get on here and enjoy reading all of the comments. Once in a blue moon I will log on and comment.( I don't have to log on to read what yall say and neither does anyone else landowners ,activists,etc) Maybe "ethical" was the wrong word to use with all you "lawabiding"wild boar hunters. Maybe ILLEGAL would be a better word for the release of a captured wild hog in the state of Texas. I'm not saying all wild hogs should be killed , but as I read it , if we catch one there are laws regulating how and where it can be released. I finally think I understand why the members on here won't even list their hometown. All this is just my opinion. I aint asking a dang one of you to do or change the way you hunt. Get it through you heads we are on the same side. Just think about who could be reading your comments and the image we are projecting on here. At least that's what the moderators on here caution us about from time to time. Of course I know there are those of you on here who would just as soon kick anyone's butt who disagrees with how you do things.But daddy always said "there's more than one way to kil;l a cat beside choking him on butter ". Good hunting boys. I'm not the enemy.

I guess I have gone from unethical to illegal in one thread according to you sir. Well Preacher1, I think I need to be educated a little. I have a question for you if you don’t mind. Where can I read up on wild hog laws in Texas like you have? That would be good information to share on this board. I could be wrong but it seems to me that you think we are outlaws and release hogs without landowner/rancher consent. If so then you are dead wrong but I can only speak for myself and the other “law abiding wild boar hunters” as you call us. I am detecting a little sarcasm there by the way.  I currently only have one place that I can release hogs on and the landowner is happy about it. I am thankful for it because the place needs the hogs for the hunting that is done out there and my cup and my freezer runneth over. I just hauled dead hogs all the way back from Florida because we had to kill them on this place. For that, you can call me crazy but not a law breaker. I have always appreciated your comment on this board and never have considered you the enemy however, I have struggled with not being offended at being called unethical and a lawbreaker. That’s a 1st for me on this board or any other for that matter. If I took you out of context then I apologize. If in fact you do think Im unethical and a lawbreaker then come out to my home in Magnolia, Texas. We can eat wild hog sausage, study “wild hog laws” and pray for each other. Don’t forget your dogs either, I have a spot we can go and catch us a good fat barr if you need. nate, I see that I should have taken a more serious approach to this topic to start with now that I see how you feel about it. Sorry about that bud. I don’t blame you for feeling the way you do about it. |

Have you thought about the message you are sending?? If I or anyone turn a hog loose on a piece of property that the land owner gives consent on please show me the law that has been broken. |

Preacher1, Might I suggest that you go back wherever it is that you are getting your information, and read some more... Maybe ask around and get some informed answers if you don't understand what is typed with regard to feral hogs in Texas. The laws have everything to do with transporting feral hogs. Not capturing them. Big difference. I OWN the hogs on my land, and I can do whatever I darn well please without being called a criminal. Now if I decide to take MY hog off of MY land, then it becomes an issue of transporting a feral hog in Texas. As long as I am catching hogs on my land, I can barr them, hold them and feed out, etc.    |

Well ya'll I got to say on this deal is he needs to cut some boars and turn them loose! If I wanted the hogs gone on my place or any of the ranch's I hunt they would be gone! I'm not saying for good but sure enough gone! I hunt both kinds of ranch's the one's that like'em and the one's that hate them!
The guy who is buying should keep his mouth shut if he is doing it but I don't have anything against it!
There is one ranch I hunt that wants all the hogs gone and there is a neighbor who turns them loose! I went and talk to him as I knew him well!Told him everthing he puts in I am takeing out! I told him about several hogs I had caught with tags ans he said well crap you ain't going to leave me any hogs to hunt!
We still talk and he don't turn any more loose! I have not got a call on any hog problems on that ranch in 2 years must of swiped'em clean!
Nija explained it well!!
