[QUOTE="SupressYourself, post: 59430, member: 340"] I believe there was an article in a recent Field and Stream that covers the “if they want to eliminate them, why can’t we shoot them?” question. Essentially it comes down to shooting one or two pigs out of a group (apparently called a “sounder”) does little to nothing in the way of eliminating all the pigs. In fact, it can just make the remaining ones harder to kill. Since they can have like 6-10 piglets a few times a year, you didn’t even make a dent. What they’ve found that works is “whole sounder” removal, which to me sounds like a pretty awesome mob-style execution of the whole damn family. I think mainly they just want to know, so they can investigate the area and get a feel for how widespread it is. If there’s a pack of 20 and you choose to shoot one or two here and there without telling the G&F, you’re probably doing more harm than good. [/QUOTE]
