Wild Boar Hunting in Texas | 40 Hogs Down with the Armasight Zeus Thermal Scope

A Texas farmer continues the fight to eradicate wild hogs and save his crops using an AR-15 and thermal night vision scope.
Wild boar, or feral hogs are a non-native and invasive species in Texas. Each year hogs cause millions of dollars in damage in the form of damaged crops, contaminated water supplies, broken equipment, transmission of disease and injury to livestock.
Wild boar compete with native wildlife for resources and also prey directly on the eggs and young of ground nesting birds and will actively hunt small mammals, frogs, lizards and snakes. www.aphis.usda.gov/aphis/ourf...
Due to their intelligence, adaptability, and prolific breeding habits, traditional methods of hunting and trapping have been largely ineffective in reducing the feral hog population.
Feral swine are not considered game animals in Texas and may be hunted by any means or methods at any time of year. Some of these methods include large round traps with remote trigger capability, hunting with dogs, and helicopter hog hunts.
Recently, with the increased availability and affordability of night vision and thermal optics, farmers, hunters and citizens alike have access to new weapons/tools to aid in the fight against feral hogs.
