Yup; it’s just natural that pork prices will go up for all of us. Thanks, California!
I think you might be on to something with the wild pigs, Rusty. Looks like California, New Mexico and Texas also have their issues with wild pigs. Arizona has the javelina, which is a different species. Let California round them up and take care of their own pork supply!
I’ve eaten javelina and wild pig, not bad and I’m alive to talk about it.
There was an island in California that was overrun by deer, I don’t recall how they originally got there, but the PETA types said there were too many to have enough grazing, which they were right. Hunting hadn’t been allowed there which would have prevented the problem. So the State just ordered them butchered in spite of more reasonable people Advocating to allow hunting so a lot of people could eat the meat. What a waste of life.
