re: Texas woman attacked and killed by feral hogs in her front yard

If she had a pit with her she’d have been protected

The pit would have prevented her from being mauled by hogs because the pit would’ve mauled her first

I’ve seen that Ted Nugent appearance on JRE too. Nice regurgitation. Get a napkin.

What a horrific way to die

Arkansas was bound to get a win eventually.

It's the boars that have a really strong "WTF" is this flavor to them.

Would a smoker help? Only way I like wild turkey.

So for someone that’s not a hunter or knows very little about hogs, I understand that the wild hog population has grown significantly in size in recent years here regionally. An insane amount of hogs everywhere. (Actually saw one on the side of 171 in Lake Charles where hogs shouldn’t be).

What’s caused this uptick in hogs running around? Why all of the sudden is this an issue? I know these things are dangerous, so what’s the problem?

A couple weeks ago I shot one of these wild Russian boars up in East Feliciana Parish that was about 250 pounds. When we walked walked up to the cage it slammed the end and it was everything that cage could do not to come apart. It had 3 1/2 to 4 inch long razor-sharp tusk that would rip you from your ankle to your a-hole.

I played in those woods a kid most of the time without a gun. Today you would never catch me in these words out of firearm because of those hogs. Even the 2 little ones that were caught in another cage were trying To come out the cage and attacking

frick those hogs and you and anyone else that has a problem with obliterating them

How does feral hog taste vs domesticated pig

---

Depends. A regular feral pig will taste just fine if you feed them on corn for a couple weeks. those are regular domesticated pigs that have gone wild, so they taste like any other pig

The wild Russian boars are fricking horrible, all you can do is make smoke sausage out of them. The meat has a strong musky flavor to it. some people say you can keep soaking it in icewater until all the blood's gone and then they're edible but that's a lot of work and I know other people that say they tried it and had no luck.

Some friends of mine just a couple miles from here kill 20 A month at least. They've tried everywhere there is to cook him, and contrary to what some here aresaying they just can't get them to be worth a damn. the first time you eat one you'll be like , that's different. By the third or fourth one you never want to eat another bite of one again

Which is what the sherif said in the press conference.
