It's so bad here there is no season on private property: every day as many as you can take and even using FMJ. The fields don't come back after being rooted unless replanted, but even worse the rooting brings up weeds and plants that are poisonous to livestock. So now the managers have to go back out to treat the land b/f replanting with forage quality grasses. I *thought* I knew how expensive the upkeep post-hog infestation was until I saw the bills for equipment rental, seed, herbicides etc. It's staggering.
