Hogs in Texas do over $50 million worth of damage to agriculture in Texas every year. Here's an excerpt from the Texas Parks and Wildlife website: In 2007, researchers estimated that each wild pig carried an associated (damage plus control) cost of $300 per year, and at an estimated 5 million wild pigs in the population at the time, Americans spent over $1.5 billion annually in damages and control costs (45). Assuming that the cost-per-wild pig estimate has remained constant, the annual costs associated with wild pigs in the United States are likely closer to $2.1 billion today (10, 11, 45).
Feral Hogs are surprisingly large and they will eat anything. My home town in central Texas had an issue with them for a while and they literally ate through the tires on my brother's car. I got a look at them one evening and I thought they were small cows at first.
they are horribly violent too, they will attack nearly anything. Farmers in NY have open permits on shooting them bc they tear up crops, attack other animals, and people.
As a Floridian, these are the tame plates I’ve seen. There are some questionable ones out there. Also, depending on the plate itself, you’re limited to a certain amount of characters. Also, when applying for the tag you have to explain what the personalization is meant to be.

Funny that Simon mentioned that RPG thing, I forgot wether it was in the Philippines or Bali but I remember hearing from a friend that there's a shooting range and for I believe it was either $800 or $1500, you could blow up a cow with an RPG. I don't condone this, just know its a thing that they offered certain customers that were really getting into it.
I'm always here for feral hogs, the stars of one of the two best memes of all time. We just need none pizza left beef in Simon's PP, and my life will be complete.
Remember when you guys talked about dog tv? Well when I was in the middle of playing a video game my mother found the channel and saw it for a little while and it felt surreal to actually see it.
In AUS, its like: - Number plate is free if its given to you - about $100 a year IIRC for a plate you make, as long as it follows formats (e.g. ABC • 12D) - about $500 a year IIRC for a plate you make that has anything that doesnt follow format (e.g. XEPHOS)
I love how I got a license plate ad RIGHT before this video…and then one about a weird genie fantasy movie with a lot of sexual tension but nonetheless.
You can appeal a admin decision since the various organizations actually make the specific decision and it can be appealed. It is part of our idea of justice and rights. Aka mistakes our ancestors learned from living in England.
You really do not want to eat feral hogs. For one, they’re so tough and gamey that you wouldn’t want to eat them anyway, but also the parasites and diseases they might carry. Though they are the size of small cows and there are hordes of them, so it’s a lot of meat.. though they can and will kill and eat you if things go wrong. And they can decimate several crop fields in a surprisingly small amount of time, destroy property, kill your pets and eat them. You have to be very careful going around outdoors after dark out in the country in Texas. It takes a LOT to kill one of those fuckers, and you’re probably not going to kill it before it gets you, and even if you do, there are about 12 others nearby who go CRAZY at the scent of blood.
in my experience feral hog meat is delicious far tastier than grocery store pork, alot of the gamey taste is due to poor butchering and processing. and much like other tough cuts of meat, cooking low and slow allows the meat to become tender and perfectly safe to eat. i live in houston but i go out to a friends property a few miles south of waco atleast once a year with other friends and hunt them. and like others have said they are extremely dangerous and without a high caliber rifle it wont do much other than anger them. some people may think its cruel to kill 20-30 animals in a couple days but feral hogs cause millions of dollars of damage every year and wreak havoc all over texas
You do have to pay for personalized plates (at least I did in California). Mine were $400 one time fee plus an extra $50 added to my registration fee per year
Hey, fun fact. Here in Idaho (U.S.A) the literal second your license plate "Vanity plate" expires, anyone can scoop it. My dad had "KC135" for a few years. The day it expired he got pulled over. Someone had already snagged the plate (Less than 24 hours after his expired) He had to go to court to prove he had not stolen the plate. Kinda' funny TBH. Long story short. Vanity plates are expensive, stupid, and have NO value here in North America. (Canada has similar laws) Meanwhile y'all are snagging them to resell like it's a domain name. Not gonna' lie, It's hella funny to me.

With active pests like you said, its often encouraged to hunt them. In my area coyotes are a nuisance, as they hunt a lot of the game in the area, and there are times there is a noticeable decrease in the deer population . Times like this, people actively go out and hunt coyotes because for every coyote you kill, you save a deer. There was a time where this was such an issue, governments would put bounties on nuisances pelts. They may give a dollar per coyote pelt, and 50 cents for a racoons. I've seen similar done with crows who harm local crops.
More people would get personalized LP’s if they didn’t have to pay for them yearly. You’d have to have an amazing one to be willing to pay for it every year. But all of the best ones are not allowed.
For the question at 3:50 I assume America is similar to that of canadas laws in which a custom license plate comes with a premium on top of the flat yearly plate fees…

Licensed hunters here in Germany are hunting wild hogs and deer (during the hunting season only, ofc) and selling the meat to restaurants, butchers and private citizens all the time. But we have veterinarians who check the muscle meat and inner organs for signs of parasites (like _trichina_ worm cysts) before its allowed to be sold. Restaurants that routinely offer game (boar, venison, pheasant) during season often have fenced-in enclosures in forested areas for "game farming", where wild pigs, deer, stags & pheasants are kept (and fed during the winter months) but allowed to roam semi-free and graze or dig for roots and mushrooms and nuts. Just to ensure there's enough on hand to satisfy customer demand, instead of having to rely solely on private hunters going into the forests and hunting in the wild (which requires a licenced hunter training and a shooting licence and a hunting permit). Btw, "feral hogs" or "feral swine" for biologists denotes pigs that were formerly domesticated but have escaped into and bred in the wild, or cross-bred with wild pigs. But populations of both wild pigs and feral pigs have been multiplying all over the world, due to them being omnivores, thriving in both forests and urbanized areas where humans have killed off predators, being very smart animals, and humans giving them abundant food sources both from agriculture (maize/corn, potatoes etc), thrown away food in trashbins and fast food. They're just as good at breeding as humans and rats.
But "hunting" wild animals from helicopters with semi-automatic guns as they do in USA and Alaska is just perverted.... it's animal abuse riddling them with bullets instead of killing them quickly and as painlessly as possible with a well-placed shot to the head or heart! And I doubt you can still properly butcher and eat an animal carcass that has been ripped apart by bursts of bullets from high-caliber semi-automatic weapons that pierce the body: if your hail of bullets pierced the entrails or brain/spine and carries bacteria and feces from the entrails or bone splinters and (potentially infected) spinal fluid into the muscle meat, it's ruined.

'Texas has many problems.' Oof, that was timed poorly.

Let's be honest. Fartman III would be known as Shart, especially if he moves to ireland.
You need to watch the movie Howard Sterns Private Parts, I believe that is what it is referencing.
If the hog is in a more rural forest area without say a dump nearby it would be safe to eat them. If it is eating garbage not so much.

Licensed hunters here in Germany are hunting wild hogs and deer (during the hunting season only, ofc) and selling the meat to restaurants, butchers and private citizens all the time. But we have veterinarians who check the muscle meat and inner organs for signs of parasites (like _trichina_ worm cysts) before its allowed to be sold. Restaurants that routinely offer game (boar, venison, pheasant) during season often have fenced-in enclosures in forested areas for "game farming", where wild pigs, deer, stags & pheasants are kept (and fed during the winter months) but allowed to roam semi-free and graze or dig for roots and mushrooms and nuts. Just to ensure there's enough on hand to satisfy customer demand, instead of having to rely solely on private hunters going into the forests and hunting in the wild (which requires a licenced hunter training and a shooting licence and a hunting permit).

But populations of both wild pigs and feral pigs have been multiplying all over the world, due to them being omnivores, thriving in both forests and urbanized areas where humans have killed off predators, being very smart animals, and humans giving them abundant food sources both from agriculture (maize/corn, potatoes etc), thrown away food in trashbins and fast food. They're just as good at breeding as humans and rats.
