We have a lot of wild boars here, infact boar hunting is a mainstay in hawaiian culture and guys have their small toyota 4x4 pickups (easier to get into places) with a dog cage usually with 5 dogs in the back, they take real pride in hunting boar.....I only shoot something when I have the time and energy to clean it out and store it in my freezer....otherwise it just does not make any sense, a waste of life......my Jack Russell has broken his leg with a wrangle in the desert with a Big Boar, and he also got a boar tusk through his leg once....he finally now won't get too close....but we see them on our back roads here especially when we are riding...our Icelandics do not seem to mind...we watch the pigs as they go back into the jungle, looking for avocados, papaya and nuts and whatever else they can find.....because of the papaya they are very tender, actually the best pork I have ever had is the wild pork here.
