What a waste of pork. I mean killing just to kill something, I get it. But how many of you actually got a hog problem? Destroying crops etc... Ever heard of hunt for the hungry? I'll dress 1 out of every 10 or so and donate the rest to people who actually need the food. It's win/win situation. Should try it sometimes.... Fatten up a little boy or girl next time instead of a fucking buzzard.

Someone yesterday was saying that they read the hog problem is getting so bad that the Corp of Engineers is considering opening up all corp land to hunting. Supposedly been over 50 years since they have done so?

As for the eating thing............ever ate stuff from a large feral hog? It's nasty. Not to mention they off too many to ever dress and keep it all. There's just too many of them.2004 Suzuki DL650

Feral hogs are the most prolific large, wild mammal in North America.
With adequate nutrition, a feral hog population can double in 4 months.
Breeding occurs throughout the year when conditions are favorable, and seasonally when food supply and nutrient quality vary. Females begin breeding
at about 8 to 10 months old, or as young as 6 months if food is abundant.
Under favorable conditions, sows can produce two litters every 12 to 15
months, with an average of four to eight piglets per litter and a sex ratio of
1:1. Younger sows tend to have smaller litters, while an older sow may have
as many as 10 to 13 piglets.

And while yes, it can partially be the cooking or the voiding, it is widely accepted that once they get much over 150 the meat does change...
And on the numbers of hogs, damn! We hit the bottoms the other night at 10:20, picked a spot barely inside the bottoms ON the main trail, and camped out. Within five minutes we heard at least 30 hogs closing in and I personally saw about 15 before we squeezed off on them. They are as bad as rabbits! Went back the next morning and the hogs actually returned and rooted the same spot at which we had shot at them only hours before...
