Feral Hogs Hardeman County?

[caveman]

We hunt around the Hickory Valley, TN area. I keep hearing about Feral Hogs moving closer to this area. Been hunting here for over 20 years and have never seen a Hog or witnessed any signs of them.

Has anyone else familiar with the area seen any? I don't want these pest coming anywhere near us.

Thanks , I have some friends that hunt down in Mississippi approximately 20 miles away. They are seeing more and more every year. That just tells me the Hogs are coming. Not sure of their migration rate per year but from what I have been told there is nothing good about these darn things for Deer, Turkey, Quail(what few we have). if it is on the ground a Hog will eat it.

Someone had trail camera pics of one in McNairy county a couple of years ago - if they make their way to me I'll be done with food plots, especially corn

Just last week easy45 posted a pic of one from over around Hornsby.

Wonder if it's a true wild hog or a escapee turned feral

I really don't k NJ ow how to tell the difference in the 2 . In dyersburg there was a hog farm that had several get out and turned wild we'd see every now and again.
