[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2146572, member: 5412"] There are several reasons this happens. As a landowner, I can give first hand explanation. Primarily, landowners reserve the ground for hunting by relatives. Some People that think that big old patch of ground looks deserted, and they don't see any reason why they shouldn't go on the property at will and shoot whatever they want. I have found remenants of meth labs, fences cut, bags of household trash and appliances thrown into the creek, to be scattered across my land when it floods, gates left open with livestock inside, and vehicle tracks across a newly planted wheat field. My barn has been broken into twice. I've had people arrested or ticketed for criminal trespass because they shot from the road, and trespassed on my land to recover the illegally shot animal. Thats just a small list of reasons landowners don't welcome the general public to help with pig eradication. Also some landowners charge lease fees to anybody wanting to hunt on their land, and at times it can be pretty steep. I can tell you from first hand experience, these last two years of drought have made scrabbling in the dirt a very non-profitable business to be in, and I don't blame anybody one bit trying to make a few bucks to make that $350,000 tractor payment.
