ain't never seen a hog trapped that didn't move in the trap. Usually everything is torn the heck up. Then again, if you're trapping, you should be checking the traps every 24 hours. So, nothing special for the meat, just process and enjoy!

Then not a dang thing. Tie it up, take it home, purge her through with corn and fresh water for a week then eat her.

I assume you are kidding, but written words sometimes do not transmit humor.

they eat just fine straight out of the trap . when you pen them up to fatten them first thing they do is loose weight . i've taken em straight out of the trap to the house killed cleaned and eaten then in less than 14 hrs MMMMnnn GOOOd .. the big hogs i do like to hang for about 24 hours after cleaning them just to let them drain blood but the smaller 80 to 100 lb ers i usually start the pit before i run the trap and get with it . hogs used to be free ranged and gathered and went straight to slaughter house for years

The only reason I like to purge them through with clean fresh water and corn is; I think it helps with the smell when gutting them. In the past, when I have taken them straight from the woods to the pit, the meat was great, but the slaughter was a smelly job. I just found it makes the processing easier, and brings a subliminal peace of mind, I'm not trying to fatten them up. Trying to keep and care for an animal after removing it from the wild is a daunting task... If its too small to eat, and I can't use it for training purposes, leave it for the yotes or cut it loose.
