[QUOTE="dwightb, post: 2433414, member: 68068"] Water, food and shelter, those are necessary to sustain life for all living things! They must be in excess to reproduce! So we will never be totally over run as some people suggest! With more people shooting, trapping and running them with dogs there is a constant turn over. What I have see is usually two or three sows run together with piglets, Once the piglets are weaned the young boars break off and run together because the sows are already bred. Young sows will run with the older sows for awhile. When the sows come in at least one and sometime multiple boars of different ages will run with them until they are bred. Fights happen! Old warrior boars are loners except when working sows. Shot one sow and her pigs will take up with the others. Orphan pigs and they will take up with one or so that is bigger regardless of sex except for breeding age boars. So you can have old sows, with weaned sows, and multiple boars running is a sounder! Plus several weaned sows with orphaned pigs and young boars in a sounder! Where they go or come from, I would really like to know? I have had several really distinct pigs once or twice on camera at my feeders, never to be see again! Did they die, or just keep moving? [/QUOTE]
