Wild Hog Rooting Missouri Citizen Report.
Acorn boom has the wild hogs rooting on Mark Twain National Forest
Missouri Department of Conservation New Director first Wild Hog Report at September 2024 Conservation Meeting.
More the same - But we just lost 2 Months.
Leaving 17 years of history, how many trappers, etc. etc.
But let's point out the Giant Hog in the room - Last I checked this is September. You can literally press a button and see how many have been killed from Jan thru Sept 6th the day of meeting.
But MDC only showing Jan thru June. So no hogs killed in JULY or SEPTEMBER. Nothing like manipulating data to the people.
Cut Roost Trees Down is the solution! Make me laugh!
Missouri Conservation Commission Meeting

Feral Hogs Update - 2024
Little Missouri Wild Hog - Helicopter missed one.
Current River Conservation Area is not closed and they are shooting hogs from helicopters. Beware!
Missouri - Jan 22, 2024
70% of the Feral Hogs must be removed yearly to keep population stable - Per MDC.
May of 2019
MDC has no approximation of wild pig numbers. “The Missouri Department of Conservation does not have an estimate of the population of feral hogs in Missouri,” McLain says.
“Right now, we don’t know the feral hog population in Missouri and have no way to estimate the number,” Leary echoes. “We know trapping is working and diminishing populations because we see fewer signs of damage from feral hogs.”
“I see us in five or 10 years showing eliminated populations of feral hogs across the state,” he adds.
Cody Norris, public affairs officer with Mark Twain National Forest, also says no wild pig population evaluation is currently possible. “There is no accurate estimate of how many feral swine are in our forest due to uncontrolled variables related (to) human influences such as introduction and moving of individual pigs, fragmented and remote landscapes.”
However, a Mark Twain National Forest publication (Forest Reflections2017, page 10) released in June 2018, contradicts the absence of a wild pig approximation, and projects numbers at “an estimated 20,000 – 30,000 feral hogs in the State of Missouri.” Whether viewed from the low or high end, if the Forest Reflections tally is correct, MDC wild pig trapping numbers are far below conventional control rates.
Bend over and Brace Yourself!
Here comes the flood of propaganda from Jefferson City just like any good Missouri Citizens buckets of koolaid for you to drink.
Brought to you by farmer on TV called a Cooperative Feral Hog Outreach Educator -
His Missouri nickname is
"Feral Hog Fauci"- that is now being paid for by tax payer funded farm bill money for Feral Hogs.
PS. We still can't tell you the population or how many we killed in Missouri for 2023. But please pay your taxes. We need more money!!
Missouri Department of Conservation 16 years of Trapping and Helicopters - 75,848 Wild Hogs Killed for over 20 Million Dollars.
What does 20 million dollars and 15 years of trapping look like.
Don't worry couple more million and decades. It will be the same.
November and December 2023

Talking with Missouri Koolaid Drinkers it's a pure shame.
All he reads is checkbook journalism from Missouri Media after it is vomited from MDC.
He was shocked by this 2020 video, which he said didn't exist. LOL
By the way MDC testified to budget committee that same year the 4.5 million after this was the first federal money they had gotten.
No lie to big to the Missouri House of Representatives. We do not vote in the brightest people to Jefferson City.
Fact I will go to my grave with Feral Hogs still in Missouri no matter how many Millions spent.
Missouri Feral Hog Experts we are seeing less Hog Damage.
Might have to get out of office.
Alley Springs- Ozark Scenic National Riverways wild hog rooting next to road. Lol
