Butt ... Butt... They taste good.
Last three years our sausage has been Bambi and feral.
There was a family who lived near us in NW Florida, who caught wild hogs for the meat. They had a pack of dogs who would bay the hogs and they would go in and grab them by the hind legs.
After they got hold of them they would put them in pens in their pickup. They would then pen feed them for a few months, kill and eat them.

Very entertaining videos. IIRC, this company was started by a group of retired Special Forces NCOs to apply their operation planning knowledge and experience to the problem of Feral Hogs.
They do a very good job of explaining both the Why and the How of their operations.
These are great eating and you get a lot. Makes me wonder why I have been chasing deer all these years.
Wait till them folks Gardens and Flowerbeds have been visited and their Front yard is now a muck yard with divots the size of bath tubs...
And then... Hogs seem to really enjoy coming back after the repairs to re visit and return their form of landscape expertise.
Those same folks will be shooting them from the porch inside City Limits and wondering WHY would anyone try to stop them from protecting their own property.
Personally I will only harvest Pig on purpose in the Fall... rest of the time the majority of the fallen feed buzzards... sometimes I like the little ones just cause the coals are still hot on the BBQ.
Missouri never had a feral hog problem until a few years ago when people started releasing them to create a hog hunting industry.
jihad repellant.
If there not promoting “shoot em if you see em”then the state is losing the battle against them.
It's about time! Let the damn pigs starve to death! Serves them right!
“Hunters could help reduce the population of destructive and dangerous feral hogs in Missouri if they would stop shooting them”
Liberalism 101: if you want to exterminate a pest, don’t kill it. Hug it and sodomize it instead!
yep live right in the middle of this fight....we got a few dogs that can bay up a pig or two...sad day for me..what do you expect from a dept of conservation which starts furbearing season at the same time as rifle deer season. Which means if I want to hunt raccoon with dogs either I wait two weeks or just hunt the dogs at night and make damn sure I get them out of the wood’s by daylight. Or be shot by a deer hunter. Easier to hunt furbearing animals during the day for a old man.
Hogs need to be stopped any way possible. Stalking, from a tree stand, from your front porch, dogs, traps any safe way to do it period.
If you are going to trap them, keep them alive and release them in Iran or Syria.

Upsidedown world
Anyone that transports feral hogs from one place to another to release them into the wild is making the problem worse and should be heavily fined and/or lose their hunting license.
