I assume this was not for meat? Can you eat them? I honestly don't know. 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.

Good job Hanco, but I gotta ask how does a load of hogs smells like on a warm texas day?
mike r Like a load of hogs on a warm Texas day... I assume this was not for meat? Can you eat them? I honestly don't know. 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...

100,000 hunters shooting that many pigs, each, in one day, would not make a dent in the state's population of feral swine. 100,000 X 20 = 2 million. Would make a sizable dent (or crash) in the Texas hog population. Would probably take a year to rebuild.

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

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
