From USA Today - this has been long over do in my opinion - 2-8-2011
The Department of Natural Resources and the Environment declared feral pigs an invasive species and gave the legislature until July 8 to come up with regulations on the breeding and confining the tusked animals, or ownership of them will be banned. The agency estimates there are 3000 to 5000 feral pigs in 65 counties threatening farms and native species.
We all know what the source is - the game farms and or other hunters releasing them, we don't want this problem in this state like others have. I know a guy who lives next to Ted Nugents ranch who got chased by an escaped hog and ending up shooting it.
