Target practice might be the only benefit ...well, we could feed some hungry people.

No. The agricultural damage and effect on turkey and deer isn't worth it to me.

No you dont want them. The hunting club I belong to in Alabama can't keep them out of our green fields. I have killed over 200 down there the last few years during turkey season. Hate them.

There's no such thing as a good hog. Need to be eradicated, period.

It would be fun to hunt them here year round so I say yes to that but the damage they do I'd say its not worth it so no we don't but a hog roast sure sounds good

No! Kill em' all. In addition to their more famous drawbacks, their rooting could devastate wild plant populations.

I hunted them when I lived in Florida and I have to agree with hornzilla, they make excellent groceries. They taste better than farm raised pork, because of their varied diet, with a lot less fat in the meat...........robin

For the yes group! Forget turkey hunting and seeing way less deer. No more safe ground blinds etc. A lot of farm ponds will be destroyed. They will rip a pond dam in one night. Kiss farm fishing goodbye.

I support penned hogs, but you fellas probably figured that.

Kiss farm fishing goodbye. I agree they do a lot of damage. Have seen it first hand. But the states that do have hogs also still have deer and turkeys.

I worked three years in Alabama (P&G projects) and we talked a lot and show me some of the damage and issues. No one wants them and if they had their wish there would be none.

Now, I have several friends who own CFO hog farms that keep their pigs contained but that's a whole different animal.

I had, what I referred to then as, an old black female Algebra teacher in high school who kept a big jar of pickled pig feet on her desk. She would occasionally pull some out and suck on it in class. Now we would call her a deceased or very elderly African American.

But if we don't see five hundred deer per sit then it's not enough
