Sadly this will only knock a dent in the population for 3-6 months.

I would, however, take a few choice shoulders and loins off the right sized sow or small pig. Really tasty. And while the charities might not take some of that, i guarantee there are lots of people willing to take some free meat in the hardworking sections of town. Maybe even create a feel good event by getting hunters/butchers to donate some time to butcher all these pigs and give it to the food bank. Coordinate with Hunters for the Hungry or something similar.

A wild pig is nothing but a varmint/pest and is not native to the US. I don't feel any more obligated to eat a pig I kill than I would a rat I caught in the barn.
Knock on wood but somehow none of the land I hunt in Alabama has pigs on it. I saw 2 on our place near Lake Eufaula one time and I killed them both. Probably were dropped off by some a-hole dog trapper.

Mung, honestly I tried that. Last year I caught 13 in my trap 8 of which were choice 60 -75 lb sows all shot in the head. I had a list of 17 people in my phone that wanted me to give them a pig if I got one so I started calling. Every single one of the MF'ers had some excuse. One even told me he could not take it cause his freezer was broken even though it was 20 degrees outside that day. Most of the poeple, all of whom live in the sticks, only wanted the meat if it was processed. I got questions like "how much of it is sausage", "How much backstrap do you have", "is it in freezer paper or vaccum sealed?", and "could you bring it over Wed., I will cook some beans and make slaw".
So I drove to the Hispanic side of town thinking surely someone would want the meat. I went to the hispanic market and sat in the parking lot offering free hogs to anyone who wanted them for over 90 min. I got turned down by dozens of families. Finally one of the ladies in the deli decided she wanted them and called her hsuband. He came to pick them up but bitched and moaned that I had not quatered them all out for him.
Wouldn't it be refershing if the feel good event was someone in need actually being willing to do a little work for what they are recieving?
I offered to teach a course at the local food bank of proper processing and butchering of wild hogs for anyone interested. They looked into it and no one was interested.
Sadly they would prefer to eat for a day instead of being taught to fish.
ETA:
I will be filling my freezer this weekend again though, and dropping one off to be made into Jalapeno and Cheese brawtwurst.

that's a shame... a sign of the times i guess. nobody is willing to do "their part" anymore it seems like.

Why in the hell would they work for it when our good ole government will just hand it to them?
I'm all for helping those that want to be helped, but sadly most of the ones in the position of poverty are there, not because they caught a bad break, but because they are lazy and accustomed to having Uncle Sam provide them with all of their essentials, plus extras.
BP, you did more than most are willing to do to help them, but sadly they would rather stand in line at a food shelter than get their hands dirty.
BTW, can you FedEx some of them to Prairieville. I'll take a few roasts and backstrap, the rest you can grind up and make sausage. Put it one of those fancy ice chests with dry ice, like the Omaha Steaks are sent it. I'll email you my address.

Slick, I'll get right on that.
What is really weird is MANY MANY people that could benefit simply refuse to eat "wild game" or more specifically "wild boar"
Man are they missing out.

In this country, with virtually any minute amount of work ethic, it is impossible to starve. In Georgia and Alabama there is a massive shortage of field hands. The state governments are even setting up websites trying to link workers with farmers who need them, but no one is signing up. Unemployment is at an all time high but our government would rather send checks than make people do needed work like that in order to receive the checks. At least in the Great Depression you had to go work on road crews to get your checks.
What a pathetic country we have become that you couldn't even give a hog or deer to someone in poverty because they won't clean it themselves. I agree with you. I'm not spending a dime to pay someone else to process meat for the homeless when they could process it themselves.

Cut off the checks, let them get truly hungry for once in their lives and they will eat wild game. People in this country have no idea what poverty means. The poor are usually the most overweight.
