Feral Hogs

Sean (TX) · Oct 24, 2010

If any of you fellas are having feral hog problems within a 100 miles of San Antonio I would be glad to help you thin them out. One hog for me to take home. Ill shoot as many as you want. I am 45 and been around guns all my life. Let me know if you need help.

f you are serious Billy check the modern board. My email is open. Looks like 200 miles. Ill make the drive. Weekends ok for you? Do you have a collection station in the area. You can get money for them. I think they ship the meat to Asia. Not sure why? Ill put him in my freezer LOL

We are starting to get them here in Michigan. The Michigan Department of Agriculture and the Department of Natural Resources have issued shoot on sight statement. We don't want them up here and are trying to kill them before they get established. The blame is on the game ranches that they are escaping from. Never seen any yet, they are still very few in the state but wherever they have become established they cause alot of problems. I heard that Oregon had the same problem and got a erradication program started early that worked.

They should put a bounty on them. That would be the end of them...

Man I just like the sound of that.

So many things it could apply to...............

My property is in East Texas and we are over run with hogs. They are tearing up the fields, and what's worse, tearing up my farm equipment. We shoot 'em and then give them to the tiger rescue a few miles away. I hate 'em. I can't keep a rotary mower in good operation for any time at all.

Have gun will travel :lol:

Had trouble with the email (my side). I have heard that they do have a collection station around here. Know some people that might let you on their land to hunt. I will check.

I know we have more than our share over here.

$100 isn't a whole lot less than you can buy a domestic, corn fed one for, ready to butcher. Plus you don't have to waste time and gas and bullets getting it.

retty much says it. Most are better left where they fall.

larry@stinescorner · Nov 14, 2010

that does make sense to me ., thats why I asked how do the ferel hogs taste? Inever tried one but I would think domestic tastes better

Allen57 · Nov 14, 2010

The older they are the nastier they get. Goes without saying, old domestic boars stink pretty bad too but nothing like the wild ones. You can trap them then take the younger ones and feed them a month or so and that does help. Hard to do that with one you just shot in a pasture. If it is young enough it may not be to bad. Knowledge about how to prepare it will probably go a long way to making it edible.

Difference is no unlike when the milk cow gets into some milk weed. :shock:

BTW, I'm not knocking hunting and shooting them for sport. Buzzards need to eat too.

Sean (TX) · Nov 20, 2010

I was hunting young ones. Got a small sow and a boar. Fully equipped night hunt..
