Wart Hogs In Texas

[7m STW]

Theres a noce private ranch that backs up my place that has cape buffalo.

Probably get flamed and told how wrong I am, but I dont believe any ranch in the whole US has cape buffalo.

We used to have some in the 80's.

Just another African species that needs to be eradicated or sent back on a boat.

From Killer Bees to Hurricanes, nuthin good comes from Africa!

A company my buddy works for raises a lot of them in Texas, they're here just gotta have a heck of a fence!!


And we saw a warthog on the side of the road driving down 133 near the Chap last deer season when we were headed to SA

At least these guys were nice. No name calling or starting a new thread about how you don't know what you are talking about.

Little harsh there aren't you. I know some great folks from Africa.

I love hunting warthogs in every manner possible, and have killed a lot of them on my trips to Africa. I love to see them in their natural environment. That said, I think it was one of the worse mistakes that TPWD has made allowing ranchers to bring them in to South Texas. You all know how hard it is to keep hogs inside a fence, and warthogs are even worse. They are grazers, and eat grass, so they don't impact deer much but they are direct competitors for several other species.

According to the 2016_2017 Harvest Summary from TPW, one female warthog was taken at Chaparral.

TPWD doesn't regulate exotic species.
