 :dknow: Where are all these piggies coming from?  There are at least 2 shows out if not more on the capturing of them?  Can they be used as food?

If a farmer has a pig that gets out of its pen it only takes a few days for them to turn wild. They will start to grow "hair" and they literally will strip the land od all vegetation. If an animal dies they will eat every bit of it.
