Serious question. Why not ? I have a close friend who gets to kill F Hs occasionally. The young ones are DELICIOUS ! I've been on his lease a few times but the hogs were off the property. They come and go.
Very nasty, can give you brucellosis, leptospirosis, trichinosis, etc. They are scavengers in the wild and eat dead very rotten animals, cattle manure, etc. Anything a buzzard will eat a hog will eat. You should wear gloves and eye protection if you clean one and cook until hot all the way through. I wear gloves and drag them to the back where an alligator finishes the job. I have 2 friends that caught brucellosis gutting wild hogs. It was a lengthy process for the doctor to figure out what was the problem.
We've killed, skinned, and eaten a slew of young hogs and they are excellent. Nobody has ever gotten sick, etc and wouldn't be a problem if you cook them right. Most all have bugs/fleas though, and I dont' like that.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
