This all begs a question ... when does a species become a "native population"? Wild hogs aren't native to this area, they were brought over by the Spanish/European explorers/settlers as food stock and many escaped their pens to become feral. They're listed as "game animals" by our Game Commission ... at least I assume they are, as they're listed under our hunting season and bag limits, even though hog hunting is open year round with no limits. Where/when do they draw the line?
