Son's first Whistle Pig!
« on: March 19, 2012, 06:56:44 PM »
My Son and I  went out after school with a few of his buds and he got his first whistle pig with his new .22!  :IBCOOL:  We were helping out a campground who are over run with these things.  Got some great photos!

Cool!  Good looking bunch of vermin eradicators.  The spring weather is bringing them out.

Not good.  Ate one about 7 years ago doing survival training.  It really was the foulest meat I have ever eaten.  I have spoken to people that say the young ones are edible if you "cook them right" (not exactly sure what that means), but I can tell you without question that a big male roasted on a spit is absolutely "survival only" fare... :chuckle:
Most people only need to start gutting one and get a good whiff to know what I am talking about...
