Texas has a lot of different landscapes. Those flat, open farmlands take up a good chunk of what makes up the state. But there is a certain animal that’s ruining the landscape: feral hogs.

The species also reproduces fast. Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service estimates that there are around 3-4 million. So what’s causing this feral hog invasion, and how do we deal with it?
