So essentially there seems to be 3 schools of thought.
1. Farmers know about the pigs and don't want to potentially make things worse.
2. Farmers don't believe that there's a problem because they haven't seen any pigs since they shot that big sow 4 summers ago
3. It's all crap. There are pigs out there. You just have to learn how to hunt them...


There's another school of thought, held by the government "experts", that recreational hunting is actually counter productive and merely disperses the herds. Their solution is baiting and mass trapping.
