I really don't know about wild hogs in the everglades as I rarely get to venture that far south that often, and I have not hunted since I was a teenager in S. Texas. Several months back however I was looking for something in the sporting goods section in wal-mart and I happened to notice the sign posting the hunting regs for Fl.. Apparently there seems to be a specific season when you can actually hunt wild pigs here. Or at least that is what it seemed like to me from what I read. I was a bit confused considering that in Tx. (at least when I was a kid.) hogs were considered pests and you could shoot them 365, 24/7. You were even allowed to hunt them at night with artificial lights. The only other animal you could do that with in Tx. was coyotes.
I was a bit puzzled by what I read as I thought they were considered pests here as well. You need to be properly licensed to go after the caimans here as well (yes we do have feral caimans here also.) which once again I found odd since I figured they were a pest also.
