October is National Feral Hog Month

Damage caused by feral hogs is a growing problem because of their destructive feeding habits, potential to spread disease and increasingly growing population. There are resources to increase the understanding of feral hog biology, natural history, damage management, and control techniques.
Go to http://feralhogs.tamu.edu/ to find out more about these destructive animals.  They have been in Rockwall County for many years. Residents do not understand the danger that these hogs can be and the fatal damage they can inflict.
