Feral Hog Meeting Planned This Week

A meeting will be held in the region this week addressing the issue of Feral Hogs.

The Arkansas Feral Hog Eradication Task Force is working to connect with landowners hat face problems associated with feral hogs. The task force also wants to know what are the main concerns landowners have when removing feral hogs from their property.
