Supposed to be a big deal with "Wild Boar" on the menu.
Other than that I don't have a clue.

I'm pretty sure the USDA doesn't allow this. But if they did, you'd see the wild hog problem disappear.

They have a list of kill facilities in the state the hogs are slaughtered for consumption.
I am going to see the guy from TAMU on the 28th I will actually ask him were they go.
Here is an article I found saying the same thing

You just have to be smarter than the hog.
The #1 rule to trapping hogs is the rules change as needed. ;-)

Follow the Vultures
When two Willacy County game wardens spotted several turkey vultures in a ranch off a county road, they went to the scene and found a dump site of freshly killed feral hogs and javelinas. The wardens followed the tracks to a hunters' campsite and found a list of hunters who had hunted that morning. The warden contacted the lease master and found the individual responsible for the dump site. The warden filed waste of game charges against the hunter and civil restitution is pending.

Hogs are not game. That's like saying you have to eat coyotes or rattlesnakes.
