Thanks again for all of the kind words. Let me try to clear up some questions. Yes we do eat these and they are very tasty. (Not much different than the pork you buy at the store) One of my hobbies is sausage making and I have a meat grinder and sausage press at home. If it is a larger hog we will usually drop it off at the meat processing plant and for about $70 you come back about a week later and have everything from pork chops to sausage all wrapped up nice and neat in butcher paper waiting for you. The smaller pigs were juveniles that weighed about 20 pounds. The smaller one was selected because we wanted one to put whole on the smoker and unless you have a huge smoker 20 to 30 pounds is about maximum. When a hog is a "baby" it is about the size of a football, these were about 30-inches long. I can see from the pictures that one might mistakenly get the impression that we were "Killin' cute and cuddly babies", but I assure that was not the case. Even at this young age the damage they can cause from rooting and foraging for food is astounding. If you don't believe me do a Google image search for �feral hog damage� and take a gander at what they can do. I did not post these pictures on here to offend anyone or to stir the pot; I just wanted to show a perspective to a pig hunt that is not usually captured on film.

200 pounds? as an avid hog hunter, judging by the size of the piglets, i would say 110 max...closer to 80. no offense, but one of the most common things in hunting is overestimating hog weight

awesome pics though, very good camera work

Hopefully, a coyote or bobcat will make short work of them. They're feral hogs, and they are destructive and are prolific breeders.

Those are some great shots! Thanks for sharing them!
