In contrast Nebraska is winning the war on feral hogs. Our Game and Parks division outlawed feral hog hunting years ago and has taken a zero tolerance policy on feral hogs. If you see one you can shoot it, but you can't harvest it. This action took the financial incentive out of the feral hog hunting business Nebraska. So long as Texas landowners can charge people to hunt hogs you will have finacial incentives in place for hunting hogs that won't likely adress the problem of controling feral hog populations, it is only going to get worse.
Shorty, that's thinking like an economist: Incentives matter. Texas would do well to adopt the same policy, along with the sodium nitrate.
