Did you catch the part where they said it was too hard for hunters to get them out after they killed them?

Yea but how did they get the traps in?.....>"That has led federal agencies to launch an ambitious program that will use cage traps, corral traps, federal hunters with guns and dogs and even shooting from helicopters to exterminate the area’s population of wild swine".......THIS IS THE SAME TOOLS THAT WE HUNTERS USE.....DID I MISS SOMETHING

They just don't seem to have the # of hunters in California to handle them. From what they printed, the numbers aren't that "out of control" yet.

Both of yall are correct. only 200 head per county sounds low, but in one years time those #s could be 8 times higher!! So like RD said its a good time to start a control program. Also as JR68 said about the # of hunters in Calf. The hunting heritage of that state is about non-exhistant!!!
I have family there and visit from time to time..............and can never get home quick enough.
