How To
How to hunt wild hogs
Wild hogs, which are large, can be found in North America and Asia as well as Europe. Wild hogs can eat small animals and plants, including birds, insects and rabbits. They feed mostly at night. One piglet is born after the gestation period of approximately six months. A sow has one child every two years. Wild hogs are often solitary but can live in groups known as herds.
Wild boars typically weigh around 200 pounds (90kg). Their average head length is 10-12 inches (25-30cm), and their body length is 20-30 inches (50-75cm). Wild pigs have short tails, long legs and broad shoulders. A thick layer of fat is found under their skin.
They are extremely sensitive to the senses of sight, hearing, smell, and taste. They use their senses to identify danger and find food. They can run up 35 miles per hour (56 km/h), as well as jump up to 15ft (4m) distances. They are sharp-toothed and have sharp claws. They are very aggressive when protecting themselves from predators.
Hunting wild Hogs can be difficult as they are agile, intelligent, and elusive. Hunters must stalk them carefully. Hunting too soon can cause the animal to escape. Hunters who shoot too soon can kill the animal before it reaches cover.
There are many methods of hunting wild hogs. The most common method of killing wild hogs is to shoot. This requires hunters to locate the animal and wait for it to arrive in range. Another option is trapping. Setting traps near water sources is another method of trapping. Some traps contain a smell lure, such a corn meal with peanut butter. When the trap is opened, the hunter shoots a trapped pig.
Another method is snaring. The pig is caught using snaring, which uses a noose out of rope. It is most effective if the pigs are caught in its mating period.
Other methods include spearing, netting, and poisoning. Netting and spearing involve placing a net or spear through the pig's neck to stop its breathing. Poisoning involves injecting poison into the pig's body.
Hunters who wish to hunt wild hogs need to be prepared for the cold weather. To stay warm in some areas, hunters can wear snowshoes. Some hunters bring dogs with them to help them track the animals.
