CONWAY — Horry County Councilman Harold Worley knows a bit about how much of a nuisance wild hogs can be.
“Being an old farm boy myself and being raised on a farm and raising hogs, I do know how vicious they can be,” Worley said of the wild hogs. “I wouldn’t want anybody to get hurt by one of these wild hogs.”
That’s why the county’s public safety committee plans to devise a plan of attack on wild hogs, who have been wreaking havoc on farms, yards and wooded areas this year. It also plans to address coyotes, which are said to be tamed similarly. Coyotes also have caused problems this year in Surfside Beach, which hired a trapper, and neighborhoods along the Grand Strand.Rising river waters are what some people believe are to blame for this year’s seemingly higher number of complaints than in years past, said Nathan Hudson, with the S.C. Department of Natural Resources.
