I have shot about 15 wild hogs in Georgia, in the Oconee River Swamp. And ate every one of them, and they were delicious. I did this over the course of five years.
Never shot 15 in one day.

Some people eat them. My son does. Even a rank old boar.

I don't. If I needed the meat to feed people, I would. Selectively.

But frankly I'm not there yet. But the good news is, nothing goes to waste here. Everything gets eaten. By something... wink

Maybe.

It wouldn't stagger them for long.

But it's a good start.

The man who invents a hog poison that can be broadcast safely without harming livestock or wildlife will be a rich man indeed.

Excellent work Charlie Chan. , if you look at Hanco’s posting, it’s shows a reshared posting of a cellphone screen shot of someone named Scott.

YES. Any orphanage but they’ll need to be processed first.

My son in law sent me those pics, probably out of a chopper. Most I’ve ever gotten is 30 in a weekend. Got 16 altogether a couple of weekends ago.

About 10 years ago a chopper friend, hired us to help clean up a ranch on the Rio Grande River, 5000 acres, hadn't been lived or hunted on for a long time, tied up in a bank repo, , with 2 choppers 2 shooters, and 4 pickups and flat beds, working from day light till dark we killed and picked up 348 pigs in 2 day's. i don't know how many we killed that didn't get picked up?

By the evening of the second day we had pushed them to the river, and it looked like rats leaving a sinking ship, they were swimming to Mexico, Rio7
