Yeah, this has been a problem out there for awhile. On the upside, it presents a year long opportunity for hunters ;-) I'd use a heavy caliber gun though - these guys are tough ;-)

I'm acquainted with Earl Hagman actually. He and his wife are great folks and have been in the hog (boar) business for quite awhile. He has guided and unguided boar hunts (mostly archery) on his land, and though I have yet to avail myself of such a pleasure, I think I might one of these days.

I would love to go for a boar archery hunt! Didn't know I could do it in Alberta. Anyone know the cost?
