Feral Swine in Oklahoma- an Overview from Joshua Gaskamp of the Noble Foundation

Wed, 01 Jul 2015 06:40:33 CDT

The Oklahoma Board of Agriculture convened a public forum on Tuesday in Oklahoma City to hear from stakeholders that have an interest in the growing feral swine population found in Oklahoma. In a public notice about the forum, the Department said "The continued expansion of feral hogs throughout Oklahoma with their destructive nature and prolific reproduction is a concern for many agriculturalists and landowners. This forum is being hosted by the Department of Agriculture to give the public input on solutions and proposed solutions to this concern. Topics the Board of Ag is asking participants to address include specific proposals that were discussed this last legislative session."


The leadoff speaker for the forum was Joshua Gaskamp of the Noble Foundation. He offered an overview of the feral swine problem in Oklahoma- and the challenges of controlling the population of wild hogs in the state.
