Gus:
So unless you are on private property...
And "He Was Coming Right At Me!!!"...
You need a Valid Hunting License to hunt hogs in Texas.
When you get right down to it if you intend to hunt anything in Texas you need a hunting license.
Especially if you aren't standing on Your Own Land.

4dog:
yup..the land of thr free ???and the home of the weird :o
Gus:
I hear ya...
Heck you even have to have a valid hunting license with the Reptile and Amphibian stamp to pick up Dead snakes off the Road...
I have this stamp along with the Non Game Dealer permit.
So I can legally collect, trade and sell native snakes.
As well as picking up dead snakes off the road.
I guess I should be happy that it isn't Completely illegal to take Road Killed Snakes.
