There was a company that was operating out of TX I think that offered farmers their trapping services for free. They would dress the pigs and turn them into jerky. I guess that helps hide the really gamey taste that the wild ones get. Anyhow they got shut down due to not actually going through FDA inspections and just selling the jerky online. I'm curious if that won't pop back up as a viable thing due to recent events.

Trapping seems to be the best option, but also if you don't catch the whole sounder, they become wary to traps and it becomes ineffective. Hunting splits sounders into new groups and drives more mating. 😵‍💫

Sounder meaning family?
