Wild Hog (Feral) hunting regulations.

Hog regulations vary dramatically by state. Texas treats them as livestock-class invasives with year-round, no-limit take by any legal means including night hunting and aerial gunning. Most Southern states allow generous take with a basic hunting license. Some Northern and Western states with newer hog populations classify them as game species with limits. Hogs are challenging hunts — extremely cautious where pressured, surprisingly intelligent, and often nocturnal in heavily hunted areas.
