Almost a year ago, I said this would happen......

Waylon,

No, hogs have only been classified as exotic stock since this September.

Marked hogs have always been considered free range stock, ownership of the mark indicating ownership of the hog, no matter where it was.

Unmarked hogs have traditionally been non-indigenous or exotic wildlife, owned but not regulated by the state, just like any other wildlife.

Now, as exotic stock, the implication is that they belong to the person whose land they are on, weather they want the responsibility or not! Only time and a precedent setting case will tell for sure but they are apparently already being treated that way by some LEOs.
