A couple years ago there was a hog outbreak around chivington. Locals killed em all over the winter. There was an article in the Rocky Mountain News. Called the guy in the article the next spring but they'd been exterminated. DOW was worried about them getting into the Arkansas River Valley and the population exploding. Locals did em a favor.

It happens to be true, as evidenced by this entire thread.

Dont even think having hogs here would be a good thing. The bad far out weighs the good.

I've no idea how many I've killed, trapped, or marked and released.

DOW is still very concerned about a potential population around Springfield.

So, do you know if (according to the State) are they considered a nuisance animal versus a game animal?

Any chance of getting to hunt them?
