[QUOTE="Heronfish, post: 1744364, member: 42393"] Not sure how my wording was incorrect. It has been shown that hog hunting causes hogs to turn more nocturnal, making them tougher to keep tabs on. But there are other things at play. Hunters generally concern themselves with killing the largest pig. Shooting of boars has no population impact. As well, increased hunting also encourages people to make money off hogs. So they raise them, release them and increase the population that way. It's completely counter intuitive to common sense, but for wild pigs itches been shown that hunting only makes the problem worse. [/QUOTE]
