    I know a pig that gets out of a trap is almost never going in one again and will likely try to train its friends not to as well .
    as far as how they taste if trapped and consumed I see no difference between those and the shot outside the trap variety myself .

    Which trap did you buy? Tractor supply?

    Before you spend a bunch of money on a manufactured name brand trap. Look up the figure 6 trap. 4 bull wire panels about 20 Tee post some tie wire and a little work you will have a nice trap. Look up videos on you tube. Easy to build and you leave the door open let them get used up going in and eating for a week or so then shut the door. They can get in but can't get out, the best thing is its not a trip style door. We have caught 19 in one of ours at 1 time

    I have never noticed a difference in a trapped pig vs. a shot pig but yes the big boars can be pretty bad either way !!

    I know a pig that gets out of a trap is almost never going in one again
    True, once caught hard to catch again but with this corn mix I have been lucky to even catch a very weary boar after a few days of baiting.

    Which trap did you buy?
    I bought it off someone on craigslist, my old homemade one rotted from age. It appears to be like the one that tractor supply sells though.
    I used to use a fence panel style & they work well but wanted something more portable to use on this lease. If it was my property I would
    build a permanent large corral style trap.
    The finest gift you can give to any fisherman is to put a good fish back, and who knows if the fish that you caught isn't someone else's gift to you?"
    Thanks Slab thanked you for this post

    We had a storm (hurricane) coming almost 2 months ago, luckily it did not hit.
    However I moved the trap out into the open so it didn't get crushed by any falling
    trees. Between moving it & the weather changes the pigs have been here & there
    but definitely still around. They seemed very weary of going near it after moving back
    into original location. Finally got some to go in yesterday & well a cookout will be in
    order real soon.

    Nice! Nothing better than some wild hogs. Get the tenderloins out grill or fry. Maybe smoke a ham. Then grind the rest with some added ribeye steak fat trimmings from the local butcher, pepper and extra sage, makes some mighty fine sausage.
