Budget cuts threaten Kansas wild hog control efforts
The Wilson family in Bourbon County face $6,000 losses as budget cuts threaten funds for a USDA led hog control program. Kansas, once funding about $170,000 yearly, may lose money to combat feral swine, now numbered around 500 in state. Biologists say hogs cause millions in damage since 2006, with national totals near 4 million animals and $800 million yearly in damages across 39 states.
