Apparently stealing pigs is on the rise. This stinks. http://www.cnbc.com/id/44671505

One Sacremento hog farmer used to head over to Frisco twice a month and "hire" someone to work the farm. Come payday, he'd kill them with a pitchfork and feed them to the hogs.

Those hogs to prizes at the county fair every year.

May need to resume that practice, eh?

The pigs would then stumble around dazed and confused for a few days until the ingested phychodelic drug residue wore off. :shock:

.
Louisiana and Texas has so many wild hogs and pigs that the season to hunt them has been taken of Year Round now.
Kill all you want, trap too.
the hogs are tearing up fields and gardens, yards overnight.
They are every where, but you need a gun that will kill them in one shot, they have sharp teeth too.


the meat is as good as you can get for a pig or Hog, any where.

Four million wild hogs in Texas and counting. Pig fest. Plenty of bacon. Plenty to shoot, trap, or run over with a vehicle. Saw a 300 pounder crossing the highway yesterday, just wasn't hungry for bacon at the time. If you want a wild hog come on to Texas. If you want to steal a hog, stay away as we take our hogs seriously.
Always drink upstream from politicians, they tend to foul things up.

I used to joke with a buddy druge report must own copper or stock in a copper company because for a while he had at least a story a day about copper thefts.
