Hogs breed like rabbits and are extremely destructive, not to mention very smart and wary

There are just so many analogies to be made for politicians and bureaucrats with this story.

We are seeing more hogs here in North Georgia, my brother
shot one this year.
The hogs are like porcine acorn vaccum cleaners, they
don’t leave a one. We have seen the deer population
(where we hunt) move to lower elevations around farms
etc. where there is more food.

No grubs in that lawn.

It will be a little difficult to cut the grass.

One of my big pet peeves is the use of the word “wild” when “feral” is the correct description. Feral pigs are a problem here in Florida too.

"...Hunters on the ground, informed by the bright white blobs of porcine body heat illuminated on their video feeds, can then sneak up on the clever and twitchy critters and dispatch them to hog heaven..."

Hahahahahaha...what could POSSIBLY go wrong?

Coming Soon!! HeLLFiRe BBQ Drones!!

Just spray the hogs with some flame-on juice and hit ‘em with a Honey Bourbon glaze cluster bomb to finish the feast off.

Pulled Pork more your taste.. Try Twin Hellfires for a taste you’ll never forget.

Acorns are very high in bitter tannins. How do feral hogs fed on acorns taste?

Hell with drones. That homeowner needs a crossbow and a cookbook.

Haven’t hunted them yet but I’ve eaten them, sausage and a roast from a young feral hog. First pork I’d ever had with real flavor...in comparison store-bought is tasteless.

You don’t even want to think about eating an older male. What a stink. We hunt them and just leave the bull hogs where they lay.
The younger ones OTOH are good to eat.

Common feed for deer as well. Venison is good!

“How do feral hogs fed on acorns taste?”

Like a green acorn.

Green pecans is even worse.

Wait until January or February to take them when there isn’t any green acorns or pecans on the ground, then cut off the fat and they are good to eat.
