I would let the white spotted ones walk and let them breed. It would be very neat to have more white/spotted hogs like that. I have never seen one that white in the wild before. So, I would let them go, and let them breed.
The bore "getting some" would have been my target, or the sow on the receiving end. That's just rude to do in front of the children.. Somebody would have to pay for that.
A hog is nothing more than a bullet receptacle.

It has always been my understanding that population controle ment shooting the males of the species. A female can only have so many offspring in a litter, the male on the other hand is limmited only by the number of avaidable femails at any given time. Can somone explane the theroy of shooting femails for population controle?
Thank You Robert

I think you answered your own question,if you have 10 sows and 5 boar and you kill 3 boar then remaining 2 boar can still breed the 10 sow. If you shoot 3 sows then it doesnt matter how many boar there are,the boar can only breed the 7 remaining sow therefore reducing number of piglets. Thats my take on it
It's still "we the people", right?
"If it bleeds, we can kill it."

I'd bust that one having his fun. Thats how I always wanted to go out so I figure why not make his dream come true.

I always go for a double on the first shot.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

I always wait until the 2 biggest line up, so I can try for a double kill, or 3 mediums.
