The first year, they say, he removed 140 pigs.
“They’re doing the best with what they have,” he said. “Unfortunately, when they do that, they destroy crops, overturn fields, contaminate ponds and strip resources from the land. I don’t hate them, but they do need to be controlled.” Back in 2014 Ortiz removed between 100 and 200 hogs living along Salado Creek near the San Antonio airport, and he’s currently trapping several dozen in the park areas surrounding Stinson, Machemehl said.
