MS requires OOSers to purchase all-game licenses to shoot yotes and hogs. I only hunt waterfowl in MS. Don’t care to hunt deer or turkey (we have enough of those in AL much closer to the house). Coyotes and hogs are invasive species. During the eight hours of daylight I’m NOT hunting ducks while at camp, I wouldnt mind ridding the area of surplus vermin. But I’m not paying a premium to do it. It’s a service to the community!
MDWFP tells me that the law can only be modified by the legislature. As bad as the hog and coyote populations are, I’d like to see that change.
What’s the logic in this?

Maybe MDWFP doesn’t think very highly of gumps ... and coonies like me.

Yes it has to be voted on and changed by the legislature, but the legislature listens to and does what the commission does, which, for the most part, listens to the MDWFP feet on the ground want.

Re: What’s the logic in this?
As long as you have a dead hog in your possession I doubt they would ever bother you? The problem comes when you have a high-powered rifle during deer season and no dead hog to show for it.
But what do I know.

Re: What’s the logic in this?
Fair points all. I’m a MS native and a MS landowner. That wouldn't help me at all if Mr. Greenjeans saw me cruising the lease in a SxS with an AR beside me.
If y’all want some help with hog & yote eradication, write your congressman.

Re: What’s the logic in this?
I was under the impression that there is a caveat where you didn't need a hunting license (except for the duck) to hunt on land you own.
Looking for 2 duck calls from Dominic Serio of Greenwood (ones for Novacaine)

Re: What’s the logic in this?
Only if you are a MS resident landowner, hunting on land titled in your name, as I read it.
