RELEASING OR POSSESSING WILD PIGS IS ILLEGAL!

  • In Kentucky it is illegal to possess, transport, or release live, wild, feral or Eurasian pigs for any purpose (302 KAR 20:065 & 301 KAR 2:082).

  • All captured pigs must be killed before being moved from site of capture.

  • The intentional release of domestic swine also is illegal.

  • The origins of many wild pig populations can unfortunately be traced to illegal releases...
