The best thing about herding pigs is that because they are omnivores you can feed them from the local fast food restaurant/donut shop dumpsters with no ill effects.
I watched a show on, I believe, animal planet call Pig Bomb. No, it's not a bomb to hunt pigs with... It was saying that the wild pig population here in the States and in parts of Europe is expanding at a uncontrollable rate. Ten years ago eighteen states were home to the United States wild pig population, now it's forty states. They said even with heavy hunting and state game control methods, the populations will continue to grow at an alarming rate.
In northern Ohio we don't have a problem but there are wild pigs in southern Ohio. Like the coyote, there's an open season on them.
Another problem the show pointed out is these pigs are becoming more like the Euro-Asian wild bore. A much bigger and more aggressive breed than the American wild pig.

If I want to eat "hog". I go to the woods and shoot one. in about an hour you can have 200 lbs of meat on the front of the boat, heading home. No feeding, and no stinking pen out in the back yard.
I have to agree with pgv on this one. The feral population needs to be reduced before I am gonna go raising any hogs.
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. Helen Keller

well wild pigs are not so disseminated in Portugal, we are small and a lot of hunters, game is a thing we love and we hunt everything ( even snails) hehe
While reading this thread the ole lady said, " pork is also a verb". She remembers watching The Simpsons and Bart was writing on the chalkboard, " pork is not a verb".
