    Itd be great to see some kind of wild pig here in Ireland that we could hunt, although there are lots of rumours of wild boar being shot and muntjac all over the country... The 1 thing I hate about a certain minority of hunters in this country is they feel the need to have to kill kill kill rather than think and actually give these animals a chance to breed and provide hunting for other lads rather than just themselves... Ive been hearing alot about these muntjac in Ireland and Id love for once for it to be confirmed for once...are they here or not?????? :confused:

    they arent hunting, they're culling. wild boar do serious damage. first saw videos of this from Australia and they do the same using shotguns and slugs.

    from the description
    Texas AgriLife Extension Service estimates that statewide annual economic damage caused by feral hogs is $400 million. We contract with land owners and farmers to manage the over population problems and property/crop damage caused by feral hogs.
