These were spotted in Lakewood, so they are moving closer to town.

have to break out the wally world camo ghille for that hunt. im thinking hard cast load in the .45-70 might work.

Updating Feral Hogs Colorado


The Colorado DOW says there is no problem right now with feral Hogs in Colorado.

Remember reading about a Feral Hog problem in the news paper 4 years ago in Kiowa County. Kiowa County commissioners have told me that the winter of 2007 killed little more then half of them off and the Dow came in a kill off the last of them in that area. they tell me work with USDA-APHIS has done an aerial view and has stated there is no issue at this time.
So I'm not able to find a place in Coloardo that has a feral Hogs problem

I didn't read thru all the posts in this thread so forgive me if this is a duplicate of someones info.

Way back when I lived and hunted most of the eastern prairie. I hunted hogs in baca county south of the Cimmaron river and along the three state borders.
Once when I was there I was approached by a Kansas DOW ranger from Grasslands National Park. Now remember I am in Colorado. He told me I could take hogs on the other side of the line in Ks and since there was no clear jurisdiction in Oklahoma in the vicinity I could hunt there too. I did hunt that area for years and was never again visited by any type of ranger warden or other law enforcement. The area is very desolate and the farms are mostly corporate owned and managed by people that don't hunt.

That was in 94. The last time I was there to hunt was 2000.
