I just read an article where they say warthogs are running wild in Texas now. I think the Southwest corner. Has anyone heard of this?

Alan,
I may be wrong on this but are wart hogs a"close cousin" to the feral pigs???

I do know that the feral pigs are causing huge amounts of damage in the southwest.

I know that some African game animals have been brought in for paying customers to shoot...call it hunt if you like.

Did not know wart hogs were brought in. Like in Florida, bringing in non-native species has consequences for the habitat and for native species.

As an aside...Pablo Escabar had hippopotamuses brought into Colombia...and they are becoming a problem.

In 2020, a population of warthogs, descendants of escaped individuals from game ranches, were running free in southern Texas.

It seems that every year there are more invasive species than native species.

Just look at the Burmese Python problem in south Florida for one example.

Then,of course,the Snakehead Fish problem.

Wayne--

And all the invasive species problems originate with problem people.
