If you have ever seen a wild or feral hog in your neighborhood, you most likely, never want to see one again. And if that hog decides to camp in your yard for a while, you will undoubtedly want to locate a feral hog removal company you can trust. World Class Wildlife Removal relocates the wild hog, keeping you and your family safe.

You see, the dictionary defines “feral” as the following:

(especially of an animal) in a wild state, especially after escape from captivity or domestication. “a feral cat.”
resembling a wild animal.

And according to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission,

“Wild hogs occur in all 67 counties of Florida. They are found in a wide variety of habitats. Still, They prefer oak-cabbage palm hammocks, freshwater marshes and sloughs, pine Flatwoods, and more open agricultural areas.”

That is not great news for Floridians. And while our agricultural areas are decreasing, that only pushes the population of feral hogs closer and closer to residential parts of the state. So, education and feral hog removal are the best policies.

If you notice a feral hog hanging around your home or camping in your backyard, make that call to World Class Wildlife Removal ASAP.

Feral Hog Dangers

Hogs in the wild can reach around 150 lbs or more and measure five to six feet in length. They are truly massive. Therefore, the mess they can make will be extensive. When they root for food, they use their snouts to turn the soil and uproot plants and animals. This can ruin a garden or yard in a big hurry.

Additionally, you should know they are not native to Florida, so they are considered an invasive species. What that means is the feral hog will damage the Florida terrain with disruption of the natural ecosystem and modify the chemistry of the soil. And that is not good news for the animals that are natural to the area.

The loss of agricultural production exceeds two billion dollars per year in the United States.

Finally, they carry several diseases which can be transmitted to humans and other animals alike.

Indeed, when you see the damage created by a feral hog, you will want to call the experts. Contact World Class Wildlife Removal, and we will be right out to relocate the animal.
