Feral Hog Control Program
June 28, 6 p.m.
Nacogdoches County Extension Office Meeting Room, 203 W. Main St., Nacogdoches, TX 75961

Area residents are invited to a feral hog program that will cover hog control and the
hogs’ potential contribution to poor water quality in the Attoyac Bayou and other watersheds.

Dr. Billy Higginbotham, AgriLife Extension wildlife and fisheries specialist, will give a
presentation called “Wild Pig Damage Abatement Through Control Efforts.” It will
include an overview of feral hogs, their lifecycle and what landowners legally can and
cannot do to control these animals.

Lucas Gregory, Texas Water Resources Institute project manager for the Attoyac
Bayou WPP development project, will also discuss potential water quality impacts
from feral hogs and other sources as well as efforts currently underway to identify
sources of bacteria pollution in the Attoyac Bayou watershed.
