Comment on Hey, do americans just want to take a break from normal politics for a bit and focus all our efforts solely on the wild boar problem?

  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.

      Gotta cook them right. Sounds like your grandpa knew how to cook them.

      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
