So the most destructive pest in America is the wild pig? A beast that good to eat? Well, solution found.
The younger ones are good eating but wild hogs can carry many diseases. I doubt the Govt/USDA would approve for commercial sale, not sure.
Most of the meat goes to waste as there is just too many of them to deal with. Eradication is the name of the game. In a survival situation Texans will never stave that's for sure.

A rifle with night vision and a suppressor seems to be the way to go to rack up numbers outside of trapping them. The ammo bill would put a hurt on you though.
Lot's of Texans on this forum could provide more info, in fact most of the southern states are infested, southern Missouri has plenty but nowhere near the problem they have become further south.
The problem is they reproduce so fast they are spreading their territories like wildfire. They cause millions of dollars in damage every year.

They won't allow us to hunt them anymore in Missouri. Conservation Dept wants them all trapped now, they say hunting just spreads the sounders all over creation while trapping if done right can capture the whole sounder or most of them in one fell swoop. I think anything goes in Texas outside of tactical Nukes.
