(From time to time we see discussions on whether or not survivors will be able to "live off the land" after disaster. Well, this article shows that if the survivors live in certain parts of the country -- and like pork -- they'll probably do just fine :)

Here in southeast Texas hogs have overun out hunting leases.

Pics taken from one of my feeders a couple of years ago. When the feeder ran out corn, the hogs knocked it over.





Another feeder knocked over by wild hogs.

WOW....I'm pretty speechless here.

All I can think is.....LOCK AND LOAD BOYS!!!! LOCK! AND! LOAD!

Thank you Governor Perry, thank you. Legally shooting AR's from a helicopter as a civilian.....man what a great life!
Yep, down here in Texas we will eat high on the hog.
I have never had feral hog, how do they taste? Do they have a game flavor or do they taste more like domestic pork?

Just a little gamey, I like gamey meat though. I personally like it better than domestic.

Yeah I like a gamey flavor as well, but venison is so lean we mix pork fat with it when we grind it for burgers, would be interesting to mix it with feral hog fat....
Kev,
What are the laws in Texas on selling of wild meat? I would be very interested trying some wild hog sausage !

Pork is pork.
I had no idea that feral pigs were such a problem out west.
Gotta manage the population.
Around here.. deer are prolific. They are destructive... and tasty.
Thanks for the thread.
I haven't shot out of the side of a chopper in quite a long time. lol
Do they retrieve the wild pigs that are killed from the air?
I hate to waste meat.

I would try it too. Maybe free sausage, but pay for 'shipping and handling'?

In Louisiana, they just updated the hunting laws to allow night hunting for feral hogs and coyotes. They are taking over. I've never thought to eat a coyote but feral hogs are yummy.
