Wild pigs

[Dutchess]

I was just watching a new show about these two women that catch them with dogs and their bare hands!

The whole time I was watching I was wondering why the didn't just shoot the hog then load it up into the truck. They take them alive and "process" them later to be given to food banks in the community.
They are hired by land owners that have hogs destroying acres and acres of their land.

Yes it is a MAJOR problem and they do wreck havoc. Nothing like some folks would say, kill em, cook em and eat em!

I'm game to try feral pigs...wonder how their bacon tasted? Or sausage!

a couple friends have had it and says its better then farm raised. has a different taste as compared to a pure grain fed hog.
these buggers are right on my door step. I see their tracks along the edge of the road. you can see where they come out of the huge swamp down the road and follow the roads to the corn & bean fields. one neighbor took a shot at one two summers ago but missed. he said it as at least a 200lb'r
