Mmm free bacon π₯
How rad would it be if they had unicorn horns like a narwhal
You think you've got a problem? Ours are stealing laptops!
I can understand ruining the entire harvest crops... But not stealing the laptops! D:
Are they delicious?
I've only have wild boar jerky before and it was pretty tasty, but you gotta get the meat tested first bc they can carry some serious diseases.
Sorta fun fact from my organizmal bio teacher: the reason you never hear about pork being cooking medium rare is that we are fairly closely related to pigs and so we are susceptible to many of the diseases that can infect pigs.
Meh, no, unless you trap them. Youve got to feed them a better diet than what they get in the wild. Also, this opinion resides heavily on the fact that industrially grown, bred and genetically manipulated pigs are damn delicious.
I disagree, my grandpa used to hunt wild boars and I have eaten them a couple times. They're delicious, good meat.
You should go hunt a bunch too! Have a bbq party and invite a bunch of poeple to get them with the idea there are delicious 400 pound hogs running wild in your backyard causing massive crop damage. Your granpa would love that
Gotta cook them right. Sounds like your grandpa knew how to cook them.
Cute piggy friends π₯°π·ππππ
Bruh they'll fuck you up. They're vicious.
You would be vicious too if someone was hunting you with dogs and a rifle. I have encountered several wild boars in Japan and gotten close enough to touch them. Try giving them snacks like you would a cute kitty and see if they don't respond just like a cute kitty does. They mirror our behavior.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_boar
It is a small, almost maneless, yellowish-brown subspecies[4] with distinctive white whiskers extending from the corners of the mouth to the cheeks.[2]
That is not what we have here.
We have these
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feral_pig
Feral pigs can be dangerous to people, particularly when the pigs travel in herds with their young, and should be avoided when possible. Feral pigs living in the United States have been known to attack without provocation and fatally injure human beings.
I concede that feral pigs and feral dogs can be much more dangerous than their unaltered natural counterparts boars and wolves. Here is a video from one of my trail cameras of a Japanese boar mama and her babies. I have never met any females with babies in the woods. I have only met male boars that were by themselves. I always announce my presence by repeating a little chant while I walk. It lets the animals know I'm coming and that I'm not trying to hunt them. If they don't want me to see them, they have plenty of time to get away. If an animal runs into me, I don't want the animal to be surprised. That's the worst possible meeting. https://spectra.video/w/n8XJxxYPK9pJqBcjAuQxQV
Again, Japanese boars are much much smaller than the boar we have here. Think game of thrones dangerous. They get to 400-600lbs and they're practically solid muscle and have pretty much no natural predators, the ones in Japan are tiny compared to the ones here in the usa and parts of South America.
About the only thing they are good for is shooting.
How's their aim?
