Looks like NC Wildlife has come out and said they're not regulating feral hog hunting (so they're legal anytime on private property, and during any open season on public land).
Saw this article for the county just south of me so it looks like the hogs are increasing their range. Bad news for farmers, but good news for a pig pickin.

Now I just have to find them on some public land nearby ...
They are bad news....thanks for sharing.
too cool!!!! I am going to try and shoot one in the pungo this year.
Sorry for the farmers but it is a good thing-for us

how far east have you all seen them?

I've seen'um in Hyde , Washington and Wayne Counties.
I hear Johnson Co. has quite a few also.

I hunt a farm in Anson Co. and we killed three last year. Looks like they are there even thicker this year.
Wayne and Johnston Co.'s are wrapped up in them along the Neuse and associated creeks. Kill all you can. Hunting them w/ dogs/pistols is a big sport with some of my workmates.
