[QUOTE="Bob Wright, post: 1748436, member: 104363"] Here's my issue...hog hunting has been turned into a revenue stream. What incentive do land owners have to exterminate them? If the land isn't being used for livestock or farming, the revenue is charging people to shoot hogs, but limiting the amount of hogs taken, to continue the cash flow. If hogs are to be removed because they are a feral pest, destroying the habitat for wild animals, wouldn't hogs need to be eliminated entirely? Not when the cash cow became the norm. Even prairie dog hunting is a huge revenue stream for ranchers, taking cash from wealthy people while the shooters act like pest control for the ranchers. It's turning the whole thing upside down. The property owners employing these methods are capitalists, and if that is the decision they have made, I can understand why. Thankfully, I live in AZ. it's only 15% private/city/ town. The rest is pretty much our hunting grounds, for now. Hogs probably would never survive here. They are not regulated as state game animals, and therefore open season. [/QUOTE]
