Watch out for wild pigs
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Wildlife Services, there are millions of wild pigs across the country. They spread damage and disease. The pig population boom has hit Arizona and Mohave County.
David Bergman, Arizona director for the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Wildlife Services says they'll eat almost anything they come across. They are quite adaptable and they are omnivorous. Bergman said these pigs root up wetlands, threaten endangered species, and spread diseases to commercial livestock and possibly even people. There are estimated to be between 500 and 1,000 wild hogs in Arizona, according to Jack Mayer, a national expert on feral hogs at the Savannah River National Laboratory in South Carolina. They have been spotted primarily in four areas: Bowie in Cochise County, Redington in Pima County, Dugas in Yavapai County, and the biggest cluster is in the Lake Havasu National Wildlife Refuge in La Paz County. Congressman Mike Conaway of Texas said the problem is getting worse and he wants the animals to be labeled as predators so they can be hunted. In Arizona, the USDA said it is monitoring the feral swine and it's looking at both lethal and non-lethal methods of controlling the wild pig population.
