People don’t hunt them from choppers out here-just on the ground with a rifle-but the hogs get either butchered at home or at a locker plant and end up the same as any hog-on the table. Most of those big-bucks thrill hunters don’t even eat the deer they bag, never mind the hogs-a lot of them won’t eat game meat.
If more people would eat the damn hogs instead of just thrill shooting, they probably could be controlled to a better extent-and it is a natural, healthy source of really free ranging pork.
Some people trap the young wild hogs and add them to domestic hog herds-they produce a leaner, and more flavorful pork than the mostly-fat domestic hogs. I happen to like lean meat, and game meat is that...
If I lived where these things are, I think I’d have the hole dug and the beer bought before heading out hunting...whole hog BBQ!
