Coyote & Feral Swine Problems?

We believe the solution you are looking for will be found here with us.

Landowners in the state of Texas have had problems with certain species of animals for years and years. Two of the most common problem species are the ubiquitous coyote and the very adaptable feral hog. These two animals are the reason why Trapr Ltd. exists.

Coyotes have made an amazing transition from surviving on wild rodents, birds and smaller mammals to making themselves at home in our urban areas. This has caused a problem with landowners and homeowners. Urban and suburban areas generally have much smaller problems than do farmers and ranchers. Losing livestock that has cost the landowner time and money in feed and upkeep just cannot be tolerated.

The same can be said for Texas’ feral hog problems. Hogs have invaded suburban areas just as easily as the coyote. However, just like the coyote, the bigger problems seem to be in rural areas where contact with people is rare. Eating and ruining feed meant for livestock, spreading disease, destroying crops and property, the feral hog is definitely in a class by itself when it comes to causing problems. The state of Texas has determined that feral hogs have cost landowners millions of dollars last year alone. These two species account for millions and millions of lost dollars in revenue to landowners.

However, the landowner usually does not have the time to make a concentrated effort to keep these problems from getting out of hand. This is why Trapr Ltd. is here. We utilize knowledge and experience that we have gained from pursuing these animals and handling these same kinds of problems, both here in Texas and other parts of the World. These animals cannot be eradicated, but they can however be controlled or managed. It simply takes time, effort, and persistence.
