    The ones on the Nazko Hwy are sick and skinny. The SPCA says not to eat them and they are supposed to do something with them.

    According to the map halfway down there’s supposedly some around Dawson creek.??

    No one on their death bed ever said; I should have spent more time at work.

    I'm looking forward to hearing how it tastes. I wasted a lot of time looking for them near Harrison when I heard the rumour they were there. The time I put in would have been better used to hike the ridges for blacktails.

    The map is BS...its all hearsay. This is the first pig kill Ive ever seen posted and its certainly not from a feral sustaining herd

    Best be taking that article with a rather LARGE Grain of Salt.
    The fellow providing all of this "information" is a researcher, who NEEDS support for continued funding.
    His "reports" have been widely disclaimed.

    We have family, friends and those they associate with living, farming, hunting and more in his so-called Hot Spot areas.
    The vast majority have never seen any sign, and the only "feral" they collectively know of was when an uncle shot a neighbor's rampaging boar.

    Stay away from them pigs. They are diseased up the ying yang. I would not touch them. i have seen them in the process of passing away due to starvation while others have been partially consumed by the remaining pigs. if you are going to shoot any make sure that you can burn them at the same time. Just a FYI he does not have three large sons. the oldest is about 13 and not the tall. i would be more worried about the safety of the younger kids as they just wander around getting the pigs even on the highway. He does live with his wife and girlfriend. Time to bring out the Banjo. BCSPCA will not do much as they don't seem to feel that it is not a huge issue and would rather go for the dairy farmer as it is more highlight and impact on the dairy industry.
