[QUOTE="6.5shaggy, post: 2679006, member: 13311"] I have eaten them, and they can be quite tasty if they are the right size and condition and killed cleanly. Swine, if stressed when killed release enzymes that make the meat unpalatable, feral hogs are no different except maybe worse. If you want to eat one, a sow , after the first hard freeze, preferably not nursing, and shoot her right behind the ear! I have seen boars eat dead coyotes, dead cattle, cattle afterbirth, other dead hogs…I AIN’T EATING ONE! Below, one with a .257 121 hammer and one with a 6mm AI 87 Berger. Both behind the shoulder, no tracking required. [/QUOTE]
