I have heard that there are a lot of feral pigs in sw Idaho near our border. if this is true , do we need a tag and where would be a good place to hunt them.
Answer:
The SW Region is unaware of "a lot" of feral pigs being in SW Idaho by a border. Some time back (`3-5 years) someone had released feral pigs in the CJ Strike area and efforts were made to remove these feral pigs. The Department continues to be interested in removing any feral pigs released onto Department land, or in cooperation with county, state, and federal agencies any pigs on any other public land. A tag is not required but pick up your hunting license.
The Department would be interested in any sightings of feral pigs in the CJ Strike area or elsehwere on public land.
Thank you.
