Read this in my local paper today that a law was just passed in OK that a land owner can now equip a radio tracking collar to a wild hog after catching in the wild and then can be released to be tracked back to the heard. Thats pretty cool there, may not get your collars back but cool! ! Anyone else see this?

We oughta start micro chipping these hogs. Then when ole big boy thinks he gave em the slip...........BANG.......... on ya again FOOL..... LOL We gotta get the government to give us grants and funding for this. We need to classify hogs as domestic terrorist and have big brother options to battle the swine infadels.  |

How they get the collars to stay on there next ? Seems like they would slip them off

It's funny this post came up. About two weeks ago when I was thinking about mock hunts and losing hogs due to young dogs and such I thought "I bet I could rig a tracking collar on a hog, that way if he got away from the young dogs I would just track him and put the dogs back on him." Sounded like it would work to me.

Yeah we have talked about doing it for years when we get into big groups, we thought we could use a harness like for a dog, that's what we use on are training pigs, when I worked for Tyson foods we had huge harnesses that we used to walk the bid boars around with, checking for sows in heat, I'm betting we could rig one up with a little duck tap and some wire lol.

We took a reporter from St. Louis out a few years ago. They actually did that in Missouri on the previous story he had written... I think they called it a Judas pig?

That's really cool! I was talking about this with the guys not too long ago, but we couldn't justify putting a $200 Garmin collar on a hog! LOL! |

how do they keep the collars charged once released back into the wild for tracking at a later time? the garmin has, what a 3-4 day charge when left on the entire time?

Message TXhoghunter here on ETHD, he was working on a project a couple years ago at the big ranch, putting radio collars on some of the hogs and tracking their movement. He can tell you how it worked for him. Here's a link to the article by Malcolm Gay, the journalist that Mike and I hunted with a few years ago. http://www.stlmag.com/St-Louis-Magazine/May-2009/The-Boar-War/# |

What I cant figure out is why they had to pass a law making it okay to do. I would have figured that its your collar, just do it if you want to. Was there any laws against it? This is all a little weird.  |

charles they use sattelite collars that have like 6000 hrs batterie life you know kinda like the govt. uses to track whom ever they want . they don't use garmin and i think the regular beep collars you can buy up to 6000 hrs collars . the govt. uses the long life telemetry collars on all their wildlife studies . the collar starts getting weak you track em down and change em out .

some of the sealed collars from wildlife have as many as 16000 hrs. and I think the law is only stating that you can turn a hog loose only for the purpose of tracking down and killing the rest of the herd. Any other instance in ok it is unlawfull to release a caught hog.

Like Mr. Whitten says, Buddy Goatcher and Joey Young have been doing this for years now I believe. Great guys that will go out of thier way to help you out. Cain't say a bad word about either one of em. Pretty sure that they have been tracking the patterns of mature boars as well. I am gonna have to go back and read up on what they have been doing now.lol

This is all a little weird. Yeah DJ the deal was we in Oklahoma are not aloud to willfully release hogs, I think that is what its all about. |

Didn't think about it but I don't think that we are allowed to do that in Texas either unless its on a fenced game ranch. I never think about those little things.  Usually when I get a hair brained idea, I just do it. |
