Hunt approved for wild pigs in Wisconsin

Feral pigs - a shaggy, sharp-tusked, mean-spirited version of domestic porkers - are becoming a problem in Wisconsin. They are now found in at least 29 counties here, and wildlife officials are hoping that hunters heading into the woods this fall to capture more common game will take aim at wild pigs.

"Seeing as how they're not from Wisconsin, we'd like to keep them out," DNR wildlife biologist Eric Mark said Tuesday.
