“They chew up the grass, they tear up the landscaping and again, they present a hazard with automobiles,” says Jack McFadden of Cedar Hill. “We’ve had at least the first reported accident of hitting three wild hogs here on Lake Ridge Parkway.”

There’s likely more than enough to cover both locations.

I think that Mexico could solve this problem. Build an enormous hog ranch just south of the border. Then trucks full of hogs release their loads into enclosed tunnels leading to the ranch. The hogs are given a check to meet Mexican health standards, then sent right to an abattoir at the ranch.

All that pork would be for Mexican consumption only, as US rules are way too strict.

The Executive Mansion can be occupied by good people again; there isn’t enough rancid pork in the world to sufficiently cover the Kaaba.

Do Hog Farmers still have Hog Calling Contests?
That used to be a big deal.

Two singers who would have made excellent Hog Callers:
John Bolton
Alicia Keyes

I believe these hogs aren’t suitable for human consumption. If they are, it’s the equivalent of consuming carp.

It would help if those paid hunt ranches would stop raising them.

The males would have boar taint. (taste bad) The sows would be OK but a lot of them are filled with parasites. I wouldn’t eat them.

Different Species.

The DC breed is descended from the Animal Farm clade.
