Wild hogs= long hair long nose big shoulders narrow hip Eurasian/spanish blood hogs. Evasive survivalist that are expert at avoiding death

Feral hogs= farm pigs who find themselves on the other side of the fence and effort to not return Fat ass floppy eared curly tail targets who secumbe quickly to the wild

Not trying to discredit your knowledge on wild hogs but I see multiple sows every winter with more than 5 piglets per litter. The warmer weather litters seem to always be smaller but it’s not uncommon for us to see sows with 6-8. I haven’t hunted 4 countries and 2 continents but I know it’s possible in 1 county of Alabama. 😂

All these thousands down here have straight ears and straight tails so they must fit your wild category.

Hey guys I just wanted to help out by killing some pigs and providing some people that can use it. And help out some land owner by removing some of them from area and help them out by doing upkeep to the property and any other labor to help them out.
Do I want to do this for fun? Absolutely! My dad really wants to get out and kill pigs he has talked about it repeat and wants to buy a thermal scope to shoot them at night. He will be 70 this year and had back surgery 3 weeks ago so his limited mobility for a while is something I'm trying to work with. I'd love to find a long term relationship with someone and absolutely don't mind making an investment to help them out. I might be willing to purchase a small tractor to help do bush hogging and planting work. i will even make an investment in traps. I have chainsaws and love cutting trees. So I'm very serious about doing this.
I'm in NO way a rich man, but I will make these investments to do somethings to help some families, land owners and let my dad have some fun

Just because pigs are with a sow don’t mean she birthed them either
Feral hogs may have larger litters for awhile like I say but even they will reduce litter numbers over time in the wild.

Amazing how so many bitch about hogs until someone asks to help take care of them.

Yup

I orphaned these 7, but I know they were the same litter.
I’ve had several sows drop 6-7 piglets. The most I’ve seen was 9.
Just going off of what I see…

Im well aware that pigs can hang with other sows but it’s ignorant to say that it never happens when quite literally every season we skin multiple sows with up to 10 piglets in them and often watch sows lay down in patches with 6-10 pigs sucking. This property has had hogs for at least 60 years. Just because it doesn’t line up with all the vast knowledge you claim to have about hogs doesn’t mean that it’s impossible on other properties in completely different circumstances.

But hey what do I know. I’ve only hunted and managed these properties for the last 14 years and in that time I’ve only killed a few pigs. 😂

They have enough per litter and the piglets can reproduce in “X” number of months, then the cycle repeats itself unchecked. Its really irrelevant how many they have per litter past 5 or 7.

I always take the word of folk on the ground -vs- any article or wildlife biologist.

Nowdays I shoot pigs under 15lbs, quarter and fry like chicken. I ain’t gonna run out of meat. Any deer I shoot is under 2 years old. I’m all about easy carrying and the best meat.

I kill my fair share of pork but we don’t eat much of it. I make a few pounds of sausage and normally give away all I can then feed the worms and yotes with the rest.

I think I’m so healthy because I really don’t do sausage. 🤣😂

Young clean good cuts of meat for me. When I fry, I use Avocado oil.

I’ve stayed away from products of two family businesses, Community Coffee and Conecuh Sausage. I think both will kill you !

I do use Community coffee in a sprayer to keep bugs away and I eat sausage or hotdogs once a year on Father’s day.

What you just said is spot on with what I've witnessed here for years. A have to agree 100 percent.

Hunting them vs taking care of them - two drastically different things. If he was asking for permission to show up with a pig brig and put in the time and effort to make a real dent - that’s one thing. But we haven’t heard that offer yet. Landowners who bitch don’t need another hunter to just show up and shoot a little - they’ve probably already tried that, don’t you reckon

Yep

“Wild sows can have 2 litters per year with up to 10 piglets per litter”

Thought I’d stoke the debate some more. 🤣😂🤣😂

I caught/killed about 1,000 in a 4 year time frame and I’d say the average litter size was 4-6. Some had 7-8 and rarely did we encounter any with over 8. We did, but it wasn’t the norm. That’s real world yanking out fetuses of pregnant sows or trapping sows with small piglets.

🤣😂🤣
