Wild pigs in the Monterey County area were exposed to pesticide bait containing the anticoagulant rodenticide diphacinone. Rodenticide baits often contain dye to identify them as poison.
Wild pork... the other blue meat.
It tastes like smurf.

Only no one ever got poisoned eating smurf!
Reason #1001 to not eat wild pig.
“...Part domesticated pig, part wild boar...”

And...the ‘wild boars’ are domesticated pigs that have gone feral.
Maybe they were drinking colloidal silver
C’mon, man. I eat them every year. I only shoot them during the winter so I don’t have to sweat butchering them. Ha. I just lay the knife along their spine and take off the loins. Then, move back and take the hams off. No need to gut them. Buzzards gotta eat, same the worm.
It takes only three generations of domesticated pig crossing with wild boar to be indistinguishable from that of the wild boar population. Apparently all the traits of domesticated breeds of Pigs are recessive in that gene pool.
Somebody is trying to poison what should be shot.
Probably due to gunfire restrictions or brain dead Bambi watchers.
It’s sad, because they are a great source of meat.
Ok Josey Wales.
While processing the animals, the trapper found several with blue-tinged muscles and fat tissues.
Goats seen eating something looking like a space ship..............
That is hilarious! Only you would think of that.
GTT
Not really all of them. European Wild boar was released into the wild I believe by the explorer Desoto on his trek west. You can see this in some wild hogs by the long snout and wirery hair that have cross bred with domestic feral hogs.
What can I say...
Take a bow. We desperately need you here.
I still find quite a few with the Spanish bloodlines (spotted, orange sometimes) in E TX and Louisiana.
Thanks.
Gone to Texas?
