Nuts here lately, though I"m almost at 48 hours without a page right now which is NICE... It was probably Christmas time starting that we had not gone a single day without at least one call...
I don't know about mountain lions and live pigs and live javelina, I know they eat/bury dead javelina and pigs both.
But feral pigs have never touched a javelina when I've been around. My outfitter buddy down in AZ says they just love the little "reds". Haven't spent enough time out in the wilds down there to have seen it myself, but they sure would be a tasty snack for a big kitty. Enjoy what's left of the day there, I better get to doin' a bit more here too. Geno

For any of the guys fussing about liability of the land owner for hunters on their property, has anyone checked the property liability laws in Texas ?
I know nothing about Texas, but in Ohio and some other states there is a state law that prevents the landowner from getting sued by people he gives permission to hunt on his property.
Myron Most serious hunters in Texas lease, at least, some land. One of the requirements for leased land is that it is not sub-leased. But, I'm pretty sure that most of these guys are just trying to be nice about saying "no"...kinda like when you're retarded neighbor asks to borrow your car "Uhhh...I'd like to but my insurance won't let me.". Any of you guys that I don't have on ignore are welcome to come hunt with me. It ain't easy though. Even me?

There are only three things that are really bad for deer. Dogs, drought and the rut. Deer will be thrilled to know disease, wolves, coyotes, bears, and cougars are no longer a threat to them. I'll be sure and pass the word along.

Here's a question-what does hog chit look like. Who has a pic.?
I see weird scat , not sure if it's a hog or what. Pig [bleep] is not far removed from people [bleep]. Depends on what they've been eatin' and how wormy they are. Same with hogs.

I went and googled it. You are correct. http://articles.extension.org/pages/63654/feral-hog-field-signThat's not what this looked like. Should of taken a pic.

"Us" would be those of "us" that live amongst several different species of deer and that hunt those different species. "We" know the difference, behaviorally speaking, of the various species and corn feeders don't factor in.
"Us" don't have leases and have real mountains we hunt. Generally speaking "us" live in the mountainous west.
I didn't include you in the "us" for those reasons and believe you could benefit from the deer lecture.
Hope that clears it up for ya. Carry on.

They will not eat dead javelina, though mountain lions will.... Now that's interesting, they won't eat a javelina. I had thought of including introducing/re-introducing mt. lions to parts of TX as a solution to the pig problem, and they'd more than likely help out with the javelina on those places that don't like having so many. Pretty sure they are the major predator of javelina in AZ. Geno PS, rost, stay safe on your call-outs. one can never be too careful there. texas has plenty of lions.

Hard to believe with Texas' lax hunting regulations... just look what the nation was able to do with the buffalo herds! Hell I think most people prefer rely on pork more so than beef, problem should be easy to cure.

How did the hogs that ran wild around the southern areas of the country less than 100 years ago all get wiped out until recently?
What worked then that won't work now?
