Can a non-resident purchase a 2 day hunting license for pig hunting?

Question:
My friend is coming to California soon and I'd like to take him out pig hunting. Since we'll only have a couple of days available to hunt, can he just purchase a two-day non-resident license to cover him on the days we hunt? It seems like a waste to buy a full license for only a few days of hunting. (Jared H., Coalinga)

Answer: Unfortunately, no. The two-day hunting license is only valid for taking resident small game and non-game birds/mammals and is not valid for big game species in California. Your friend would be required to buy an annual non-resident license and a current non-resident wild pig tag.
