Hog question

I murdered on the hill behind my house (subdivision just outside San Antonio). If I leave him lay will the rest come back to eat him, giving me essentially bait to hunt over for a couple days? I was deer hunting but once the hogs find the corn it’s over down here. I normally would eat anything I shoot, but I just can’t keep up with the hogs. Thanks.

There's corn, you said. Corn will bring them back. I'm not sure what affect leaving the dead hog there will have.

No but if you don't have a coyote problem.... You will now!

I’m hunting a backyard buck, literally about 200 yards behind my subdivision in an undeveloped area. I hand scatter corn in front of my camera, had a nice big 8 but the hogs found the spot and it looks like a bomb went off. I hunted tonight and shot the biggest out of a group of 6 or 7. Left him right in front of the camera and plan to go back tomorrow afternoon and see what transpires.

We kill hogs all the time and when we actually do skin some out, nothing touches what's left. We dump them right next to all the deer we skin out. We'll go back the next day and dump another deer on occasion and all the deer will be spread every where from Yotes, but the hogs are exactly as we left them. I'm guessing ants and shite do their thing over time though.

Sometimes hogs will be scavenged and sometimes not. Seems for me more times than not a big sow or any boar hog will melt away due to nothing will touch them. May want to drag him off before he pops.

I always throw them in the creek for a crawfish hole

Coyotes won't touch a big sow or a boar hog at my place.
They just sit there and rot. The buzzards won't even touch them

i've never seen a hog eat a dead hog, and i worked on a pig farm for years growing up. even when sows gave birth to a stillborn they wouldn't touch it.
unless you're dealing with starving pigs, i'd expect that's the last thing they'd eat.
but if on the off chance it does happen, the question I'd be asking myself is " do I want to consume pork that's been consuming rotten pork?" my self says "hell no," but maybe your self is different.

Leaving it rot where you hunt deer will not be good for your deer hunting.

Get the back strap and hams off that thing when you shoot them. Cube up the ham meat and marinate it with a meat tenderizer. vacuum seal it in 1 lb bags. that's some good meat.
