Spring is but weeks away and along with bluebonnets and warmer weather, the change brings the about birthing season for Texas’ estimated 1.5 million feral hogs.

To help keep ahead of the infestation, the Hays County Commissioners Court on Jan. 28 renewed its interlocal agreement with Texas State University for feral hog control.

The county will use $5,000 out of up to $7,500 in its feral hog abatement grant for the program, which is administered by The Meadows Center for Water and the Environment, for 2020.
