awsome video, i have never seen so many hogs harvested in one night... really enjoy watching your videos and i wish you could charter down i south florida
@ShutUpFoolStudios- There is no reason to be sad about killing a family of pests. Feral hogs are no different than termites, rats or roaches. Don’t confuse the methods used to control an invasive species with the "fair chase" methods used to hunt a game animal. We remove these nuisance animals before they destroy entire fields. Just like pest control agents remove termites, rats or roaches before they destroy your entire house. There is no reason to be sad about performing pest control.
@VikAl88- Was macht ein 22-jähriger aus Deutschland verstehen, über wilde Schwein Kontrolle in den Vereinigten Staaten? Ich verbrachte meine 7 der 24 Jahre Armee Karriere in Deutschland lebenden und verdiente meinen Jagdschein aus Ihrem Land. Es ist ein Jäger in der Verantwortung des Betriebsinhabers Pflanzen aus dieser Schädlingsbekämpfung zu schützen. Deutsch Jäger die gleiche Mission mit Ihrem Forstmeisters. Sind sie Feiglinge als auch für den Schutz der deutschen Bauern?
@JAGERPRO Great reply to VikAI88. I was also stationed in Germany ( Army ) for 3 years. Never had the chance to hunt their. I was surprised to see your reply in german. You have great videos. I dont understand much german so I had my wife translate most of it. Straight to the point JAGERPRO. Keep it up.
Diese biester sind eine Plage auf unsere äcker, unsere lebensgrundlage! Sie müssen zerstört werden wie die gemeinsame kakerlake. Sie wissen nichts über das, was unsere hog hier Probleme haben und trotzdem noch eine stellungnahme ...... sie sind feige!
I am wondering why you did not use machine guns. If you use them, it seems you can easily wipe hogs out instead of allowing many of them to escape. Is it unlawful to use machine guns for hunting? By the way, I am not an American.
@jkmmimineto- We must follow the rules of our Department of Natural Resources hunting regulation. It is not legal to use fully automatic rifles for hunting (or control) purposes in the state of Georgia. I agree, we could be more successful at feral hog control if fully automatic weapons were legal.
@cronicmoua- These hogs were harvested to prevent future crop damage to Georgia corn and peanuts. The wild pork is either processed by our guest hunters or donated to local families and churches. We wish we could donate this meat directly to local food banks to feed the homeless and needy families, but is not allowed by federal regulations due to liability with swine brucellosis and pseudorabies. This is the reason it is so important to thoroughly cook wild pork to 170 degrees before eating it.
@JAGERPRO Is there a fee to guest hunt? How hard would it be for two people from NC to guest hunt with you guys? How often do you guys harvest these pest 2-3 times a week?
@cronicmoua- Yes, our income is received from guest hunters who book an experience with us just like any other professional outfitter. Hunters are paying to be part of our nightly hog control missions using the same technology our Soldiers are using in combat.

this lil piggy went to market, this lil piggy stayed home, this lil pigg....... WTF DID I JUST SEE HIS BRAINS GET SPLATTERED ACROSS THE FIELD??!! lmao good shit boys this looks fun as hell i have ben wanting to go feral boar hunting since i got back into hunting this past spring, night time with thermals though looks to be alot more fun than hunting them in the day
@thorak007- There is no reason to be sad about killing a family of pests. Feral hogs are no different than termites, rats or roaches. Don’t confuse the methods used to control an invasive species with the "fair chase" methods used to hunt a game animal. It is unethical to kill an infant game animal, but not an infant pest. We remove these nuisance animals before they destroy entire fields. Just like pest control agents remove termites, rats or roaches before they destroy your entire house.
The shot at 0:56 and several others. Is that a suppressed .308? Does a "crop permit" let you use one in Georgia for pests? If so... awesome. We have to go out of state to hunt with night vision, thermal, and supressors.
@rollmasterross- No. Hunting hogs in Georgia with suppressors is not legal via the hunting regulation. Our staff has tested suppressors on feral hogs and it does NOT give the hunter any advantage. The hogs still run out of the field when a subsonic bullet impacts another hog. They won't just stand there and let you shoot the entire group with a suppressor. They are very intelligent. Subsonic bullets shot through a suppressor are too slow to be effective and will not cycle a semi-automatic rifle.
@JAGERPRO Darn.. I was hoping that there was a way to use one for pest control in GA. I was also hoping that it gave the hunter an advantage (other than comfort). But I do enjoy shooting suppressed (even w/ supersonic ammo) because of the reduced noise and increased accuracy. It's the more polite way to fire a weapon ;c)
Btw, that .308 is a hog killing sob! They're tough animals, I hit one a year ago with a .270 130 grain ballistic tip through both lungs and it still went 40 yards before it piled up. The first 3 deer I shot with that same load were DRT (dead right there).
Same concept with hog control. We don't kill hogs because we hate them, but because we must protect our farms. The current solution is aerial gunning, traps, dogs and infrared equipment. American universities are developing bait contraceptives and Australia is working on sodium nitrite. No one expects anything to be developed or approved until after 2016. The agriculture industry can't afford to wait six or seven more years in hopes science is successful. We must initiate lethal measures now!
American farmers lose millions of dollars in crop damage annually to these invasive species. The population of feral hogs has exploded to over 5 million in recent years and they are presently found in 39 of our 50 states including Hawaii. Another threat is the transmission of pseudorabies and swine brucellosis to domestic hogs. This could cost the United States billions in commercial pork exports. Feral hogs ARE NOT game animals. They are pests; just like flies, termites, rats and roaches.
Don’t confuse the methods used to control a feral hog (invasive species) with the "fair chase" methods used to control a game species. We remove these nuisance animals before they destroy entire fields. Just like pest control agents remove termites before they destroy your entire house. Farmers want competent hunters who are committed to investing the time and resources needed to solve this problem. Feral hogs do NOT have more rights than farmers. There are no ethics involved in pest control.
It makes no difference whether you shoot a pest in the head, body or ass. Who cares if a rat, termite or hog suffers before it dies? The goal is to eliminate the pest and problem before it destroys your house or the farmer's crops.
However, these hogs were dead on impact and did not suffer. The "squirming" you see is their central nervous system moving their limbs. Any animal shot in the head will react this way for 30 seconds or so after the shot. They are NOT alive and are NOT suffering.
These little b*stards must be useful for something after you've shot them, meat or fur or something? I didn't know they were such a big problem over there. Good shooting, especially that second round.
@esgimasd- All of the harvested wild pork is either processed by our guest hunters or donated to local families and churches. We wish we could donate this meat directly to local food banks to feed the homeless and needy families, but is not allowed by federal regulations due to liability with swine brucellosis and pseudorabies.
Just ashame! Hunting with a semi automatic rifle ??? Well.. I have seen you shoot pretty bad.. but you should go to shooting center to make exercise, and not use war weapons. And with thermal??? I repeat.. just ashame!
@snowsniper8- Our 1000 meter thermal monocular which is demonstrated in another video on our channel: JAGER PRO™ Equipment Demonstration (1)- Thermal Monoculars.
@5b- Feral hogs ARE NOT game animals. They are pests; just like termites. Feral hogs carry diseases such as swine brucellosis and pseudorabies while causing millions of dollars in crop damage annually in the United States. We shoot piglets for for the same reason pest control agents kill pregnant termites and their babies in your house. We must remove these nuisance animals before they destroy our farmer's entire investment.
@Nate98Chevy- Yes, we earn our living performing thermal hog control for Georgia farmers. We have already killed 373 hogs from FEB-APR during the corn planting season and expect to be at 600+ when farmers finish planting corn in JUN. Our hunting lodge is located in Dawson, Georgia. Hopefully you can join us for a two-night hunt.
nice job guys. keep up the good work i'd like to see more of your videos. I've seen 5 videos but woul like to see more if you have any. very interesting.
Nice! Do you gentlemen do family hunts? My girls and I would'nt mind helping to cut down the farmers menace with yas. They'd give up a Disney trip for this! I see you have dates available Aug/Sept/Oct. We'll be at Tyndall AFB in Panama City, how far a drive are you? Thanks for you're service guys!
Very nice shooting. Feral hogs are in the beginning stages of becoming a problem in my state. I've been thinking of outfitting my AR15 for long range use to hunt varmints and possibly hogs. I noticed that you were using an LR-308, is the .223/5.56 round not suitable for hogs?
If given the chance I would like to go on one of your hunts. I've never hunted hogs or at night, but it looks like a good experience.
A .223 (77-grain) will kill a hog if you use quality hunting bullets and make proper shot placements. But our goal is to remove multiple hogs from each farm in a single night. A .308 caliber, 180-grain Nosler Partition bullet allows better penetration on multiple moving targets in a large group. Since we video our thermal hog control missions for educational purposes on television and DVD, we must harvest feral hogs quickly and humanely. We prefer a larger .308 caliber for hog control.
Thanks for the info. I honestly would prefer buying a new upper rather than a whole new rifle, but perhaps a dedicated rifle would be the best choice. If i go the upper route, would 6.8spc be a decent choice, or should I really go with a .308?
Anyway, I'm trying to convince my father and brother-in-law to book a hunt with you. We all want to learn a few things, and we all want to find out what the hogs taste like.
6.8 vs .308 caliber is a matter of personal opinion. We prefer .308, but a 6.8 is also a good choice for feral hogs. Hope you guys can hunt with us. We killed 89 hogs in six nights last week.
There is no reason to be sad CuppyCake. Feral hogs ARE NOT game animals. They are pests; just like flies, termites, rats and roaches. These 150 pound "pests" cause millions of dollars in crop damage annually in the United States. Our hunters perform a valuable service to remove these nuisance animals before they destroy entire fields. Just like a pest control agent removes termites before they destroy your entire house. Feral hogs also carry diseases such as swine brucellosis and pseudorabies.
All of the harvested pork is either processed by our guest hunters or donated to local families and churches. We wish we could donate this meat directly to local food banks to feed the homeless and needy families, but is not allowed by federal regulations due to liability with swine brucellosis and pseudorabies.
Our lodge is located in Dawson, GA. We manage 150,000 acres for farmers in six counties surrounding the lodge. These counties are Calhoun, Randolph, Terrell, Webster, Stewart and Sumter.
Thanks for the info @edro20. Most of our harvested pork is either processed by our guest hunters or donated to local families and churches. We wish we could donate this meat directly to local food banks to feed the homeless and needy families, but is not allowed by federal regulations due to liability with swine brucellosis and pseudorabies.
Do you have any more info on the non-profit in TX? We will harvest 1,000+ hogs this year in GA and would like to put it all to good use. I'll send a PM.
you guys need to send me some bacon, you must have literally tons! lol, but more related to the video, whenever your buddies try and shoot a pig they miss..you pretty much killed all of them
There were two guest hunters who were not experienced at night operations or shooting moving targets. The shooter behind the thermal reticle is a retired Soldier from the US Army Marksmanship Unit. He is their guide and very experienced at night operations to back-up hunters on each stalk . Guest hunters book an experience with us just like any other professional outfitter. We have the methods and equipment. The hunters are paying for the hog control experience using our thermal equipment.
Wow, nice marksmanship guys. Are these hogs the aggressive towards humans-types too or are they just a pain for farmers to deal with? I hardly know anything about them.
Feral hogs are aggressive towards humans when cornered or when protecting their young; just like any other animal. The main problem is they cause millions of dollars in crop damage and soil erosion annually. Wild hog populations are quickly expanding across the United States with present populations exceeding 5 million. In 1990, experts estimated only 1 to 2 million wild hogs across 19 states. By 2003, they had spread to 32 states and are now presently found in 40 states including Hawaii.
Hunting hogs in Georgia with suppressors is not legal via the hunting regulation. Our staff has tested suppressors on feral hogs and it does NOT give the hunter any advantage. The hogs still run out of the field when a subsonic bullet impacts another hog. Hogs are too intelligent to just stand there and let you shoot the entire group with a suppressed rifle. Subsonic bullets shot through a suppressor are too slow to be effective for high-volume control and will not cycle a semi-automatic rifle.

Damnfingers- Farmers are NOT looking for sport hunters. They are looking for competent people who are committed to investing the resources needed to solve their crop damage problem. Even high volume removal methods such as this will only solve the problem for a few months until another group of hogs move down the river system into their field. As hog populations continue to grow, we must implement alternative control methods to solve the problem when traditional hunting is not effective.
Thanks for the reply, JAGERPRO. Everyone is right....I don't know anything about hogs. I had no clue that they were so destructive and it wasn't explained in the video why they were being shot down like they were...a short intro to the film would have helped.

We plan to offer a 320x240 resolution thermal monocular (25 micron pitch) to civilian hunters on our website in MAR/APR 2010 for $8500. We plan to offer a 320x240 resolution thermal scope (17 micron pitch) to civilian hunters on our website in JUL/AUG 2010 for less than $9,900. Send us an e-mail through our website and we will contact you when these new products are complete. Or subscribe to our YouTube channel as we will post a new video using our thermal products when they become available.
Thats pretty awesome, For those who think this is cruel obviously you never hunted or for that matter know what ferrel hogs do to forrestry and farmland...all those veggies you love to eat...well let the hog population get outta hand and the cost of your veggies will rise along with other cost.
We can scan an entire 100 acre field or irrigation pivot (800-1000 yards) from one location using 640 x 480 high resolution thermal to distinguish hogs from deer. The best Generation 3 night vision device with a 29 Signal to Noise Ratio will only allow detection out to 400 yards with an infrared illuminator and no moon. You must walk or drive into the middle of the same 100 acre field to scan the entire area with night vision. This step wastes valuable time and will often times scare hogs away.
You spend 95% of your time scanning the horizon at night for hogs and coyotes. It is impossible to pick up a 10 pound rifle every five minutes to scan and be effective. It is too heavy, especially when scanning from inside a vehicle. We recommend our Gen 3 night vision scopes for your rifles and our 24 ounce, 320x240 resolution, 25 micron pitch thermal monocular (March/April 2010) to scan. This is the best possible method to hunt using both technologies and the best value for your money.
There are no thermal scopes on the civilian market which perform well enough to recommend for hunting. Civilian 320x240 thermal scopes are manufactured with a pixel size (pitch) of 53 microns. It takes a military-grade pixel size of 38 microns or smaller for effective hog or coyote control at night. We have been developing a 320x240 resolution thermal monocular and thermal scope for civilian hunters during the past year. See the (thomasbybee) reply below for product specifics and availability.
When is the civilian scope going to be available in 2010? How will it be available to civilians and not just LE? Very interested in getting one for Coyotes in Wyoming. Awesome video, best thing I've seen in a long time!

This is a common mistake (and comment) from non-hunters, so let us explain. The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) lists a gunshot to the brain as an acceptable method of euthanasia. These hogs were dead on impact and did not suffer. The "squirming" you see is actually their central nervous system moving their limbs. Any animal shot in the head will react this way for 30 seconds or so after the shot. They are NOT alive, injured or suffering. We hope this helps you feel better.
Assuming you hit them in the head each time. This seems like it would really take the challenge out of hunting, if that's what you're actually doing, if you're specifically controlling the population... then nice work.

There are no suppressors on any of the rifles used in this video. You are hearing the difference between Browning BAR .308 Stalkers used by the guest hunters and a DPMS Panther Arms .308 used by the guide.
We use a "military and law enforcement only" thermal scope costing $13,500 which is not available to the public. There are no thermal scopes on the civilian market which perform well enough to recommend for hunting. Civilian 320x240 thermal scopes are manufactured with a pixel size of 53 microns. It takes a military-grade pixel size of 38 microns or smaller for effective hog control at night. We plan to offer a 320x240 resolution monocular to civilian hunters on our website in early 2010.
Our D-740-3A (4X) or the D-760-3A (6X) Generation 3 night vision scope is all you need to shoot feral hogs at night. We guarantee our scopes will contain an ITT image intensifier tube with at least 64 line pairs per millimeter of resolution by providing a Figure of Merit (FOM) above 1500 and a Signal to Noise Ratio above 24. You will be getting a hand select tube exceeding these parameters. This caliber of ITT tube will give you the necessary performance to kill hogs in open terrain at night.
@JAGERPRO alright now that you said all the jazz about the specifications on the night vision scopes... would you say that they are "better" than others or at least most? im looking for top of the line stuff but i dont know the specifics about night vision scopes
Yes, the performance of any night vision device is based on the quality of the image intensifier tube inside. The Figure of Merit and Signal to Noise Ratio numbers are two very important factors of night vision performance. Our 'hand select' ITT tubes are the best available for a hunter to purchase.
There are three pigs standing in a tight group producing a single thermal image. Two pigs were hit with a single 180 grain Nosler Partition bullet on the first shot. The third pig was killed on the run with the second shot.
There is definately a learning curve involved. It is much easier if you scout the same terrain in the daytime so you already have a reference to known distances.
looks like fun, me and one of my shooting buddies are wanting to go sometime. a thought: is it legal to use dogs to hunt there? for the interest of population control maybe large breeds like the sarplaninac (a wolfhound) can be put to use? they make short work of wolves. maybe they can be helpful with hogs too. youtube "Sarplaninac Kills two Wolves protecting it's herd" intersting footage. i still wanna shoot tho
Yes, it is legal to use dogs to hunt hogs in Georgia. Hunting with dogs COULD be a very effective method to reduce feral hog populations. The problem is most "doggers" only hunt for sport and have no motivation to kill high volume numbers of hogs. Shooting at night is more effective.
I watched the Sarplaninac video and this breed looks very courageous. But I'm afraid their large size and heavy coat would not be an asset for hog control in the high heat and humidity of our southern states.
I sure hope yaw enjoyed that breakfast! good shootin' what scope was that? does it automatically zero or must you do it manually?

jeppesen99 1 year ago
Same concept with hog control. We don't kill hogs because we hate them, but because we must protect our farms. The current solution is aerial gunning, traps, dogs and infrared equipment. American universities are developing bait contraceptives and Australia is working on sodium nitrite. No one expects anything to be developed or approved until after 2016. The agriculture industry can't afford to wait six or seven more years in hopes science is successful. We must initiate lethal measures now!

American farmers lose millions of dollars in crop damage annually to these invasive species. The population of feral hogs has exploded to over 5 million in recent years and they are presently found in 39 of our 50 states including Hawaii. Another threat is the transmission of pseudorabies and swine brucellosis to domestic hogs. This could cost the United States billions in commercial pork exports. Feral hogs ARE NOT game animals. They are pests; just like flies, termites, rats and roaches.
JAGERPRO 1 year ago
Don’t confuse the methods used to control a feral hog (invasive species) with the "fair chase" methods used to control a game species. We remove these nuisance animals before they destroy entire fields. Just like pest control agents remove termites before they destroy your entire house. Farmers want competent hunters who are committed to investing the time and resources needed to solve this problem. Feral hogs do NOT have more rights than farmers. There are no ethics involved in pest control.
JAGERPRO 1 year ago
It makes no difference whether you shoot a pest in the head, body or ass. Who cares if a rat, termite or hog suffers before it dies? The goal is to eliminate the pest and problem before it destroys your house or the farmer's crops.
However, these hogs were dead on impact and did not suffer. The "squirming" you see is their central nervous system moving their limbs. Any animal shot in the head will react this way for 30 seconds or so after the shot. They are NOT alive and are NOT suffering.

These little b*stards must be useful for something after you've shot them, meat or fur or something? I didn't know they were such a big problem over there. Good shooting, especially that second round.

Very nice shooting. Feral hogs are in the beginning stages of becoming a problem in my state. I've been thinking of outfitting my AR15 for long range use to hunt varmints and possibly hogs. I noticed that you were using an LR-308, is the .223/5.56 round not suitable for hogs?
If given the chance I would like to go on one of your hunts. I've never hunted hogs or at night, but it looks like a good experience.
mechredd 1 year ago
A .223 (77-grain) will kill a hog if you use quality hunting bullets and make proper shot placements. But our goal is to remove multiple hogs from each farm in a single night. A .308 caliber, 180-grain Nosler Partition bullet allows better penetration on multiple moving targets in a large group. Since we video our thermal hog control missions for educational purposes on television and DVD, we must harvest feral hogs quickly and humanely. We prefer a larger .308 caliber for hog control.
JAGERPRO 1 year ago
Thanks for the info. I honestly would prefer buying a new upper rather than a whole new rifle, but perhaps a dedicated rifle would be the best choice. If i go the upper route, would 6.8spc be a decent choice, or should I really go with a .308?
Anyway, I'm trying to convince my father and brother-in-law to book a hunt with you. We all want to learn a few things, and we all want to find out what the hogs taste like.
mechredd 1 year ago
6.8 vs .308 caliber is a matter of personal opinion. We prefer .308, but a 6.8 is also a good choice for feral hogs. Hope you guys can hunt with us. We killed 89 hogs in six nights last week.

There were two guest hunters who were not experienced at night operations or shooting moving targets. The shooter behind the thermal reticle is a retired Soldier from the US Army Marksmanship Unit. He is their guide and very experienced at night operations to back-up hunters on each stalk . Guest hunters book an experience with us just like any other professional outfitter. We have the methods and equipment. The hunters are paying for the hog control experience using our thermal equipment.

OmegaPyre 2 years ago
Feral hogs are aggressive towards humans when cornered or when protecting their young; just like any other animal. The main problem is they cause millions of dollars in crop damage and soil erosion annually. Wild hog populations are quickly expanding across the United States with present populations exceeding 5 million. In 1990, experts estimated only 1 to 2 million wild hogs across 19 states. By 2003, they had spread to 32 states and are now presently found in 40 states including Hawaii.

@JAGERPRO do you guys use suppressors?
KentuckyFriedHuman 2 years ago
Hunting hogs in Georgia with suppressors is not legal via the hunting regulation. Our staff has tested suppressors on feral hogs and it does NOT give the hunter any advantage. The hogs still run out of the field when a subsonic bullet impacts another hog. Hogs are too intelligent to just stand there and let you shoot the entire group with a suppressed rifle. Subsonic bullets shot through a suppressor are too slow to be effective for high-volume control and will not cycle a semi-automatic rifle.

RMGOfreedom 2 years ago
Damnfingers- Farmers are NOT looking for sport hunters. They are looking for competent people who are committed to investing the resources needed to solve their crop damage problem. Even high volume removal methods such as this will only solve the problem for a few months until another group of hogs move down the river system into their field. As hog populations continue to grow, we must implement alternative control methods to solve the problem when traditional hunting is not effective.

What's the advantage of using thermal over (cheaper) night vision?
bubbatubba48 2 years ago
We can scan an entire 100 acre field or irrigation pivot (800-1000 yards) from one location using 640 x 480 high resolution thermal to distinguish hogs from deer. The best Generation 3 night vision device with a 29 Signal to Noise Ratio will only allow detection out to 400 yards with an infrared illuminator and no moon. You must walk or drive into the middle of the same 100 acre field to scan the entire area with night vision. This step wastes valuable time and will often times scare hogs away.
JAGERPRO 2 years ago
You spend 95% of your time scanning the horizon at night for hogs and coyotes. It is impossible to pick up a 10 pound rifle every five minutes to scan and be effective. It is too heavy, especially when scanning from inside a vehicle. We recommend our Gen 3 night vision scopes for your rifles and our 24 ounce, 320x240 resolution, 25 micron pitch thermal monocular (March/April 2010) to scan. This is the best possible method to hunt using both technologies and the best value for your money.

Zippy765 2 years ago
There are no thermal scopes on the civilian market which perform well enough to recommend for hunting. Civilian 320x240 thermal scopes are manufactured with a pixel size (pitch) of 53 microns. It takes a military-grade pixel size of 38 microns or smaller for effective hog or coyote control at night. We have been developing a 320x240 resolution thermal monocular and thermal scope for civilian hunters during the past year. See the (thomasbybee) reply below for product specifics and availability.

This is a common mistake (and comment) from non-hunters, so let us explain. The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) lists a gunshot to the brain as an acceptable method of euthanasia. These hogs were dead on impact and did not suffer. The "squirming" you see is actually their central nervous system moving their limbs. Any animal shot in the head will react this way for 30 seconds or so after the shot. They are NOT alive, injured or suffering. We hope this helps you feel better.

Our D-740-3A (4X) or the D-760-3A (6X) Generation 3 night vision scope is all you need to shoot feral hogs at night. We guarantee our scopes will contain an ITT image intensifier tube with at least 64 line pairs per millimeter of resolution by providing a Figure of Merit (FOM) above 1500 and a Signal to Noise Ratio above 24. You will be getting a hand select tube exceeding these parameters. This caliber of ITT tube will give you the necessary performance to kill hogs in open terrain at night.

Yes, the performance of any night vision device is based on the quality of the image intensifier tube inside.

DarkAngelusV 2 years ago
Yes, it is legal to use dogs to hunt hogs in Georgia. Hunting with dogs COULD be a very effective method to reduce feral hog populations. The problem is most "doggers" only hunt for sport and have no motivation to kill high volume numbers of hogs. Shooting at night is more effective.
I watched the Sarplaninac video and this breed looks very courageous. But I'm afraid their large size and heavy coat would not be an asset for hog control in the high heat and humidity of our southern states.
