No license required, no bag limit. They're tough to kill and tough to find in the brush. A decade of sport hunting them has not even made a dent. I hear you can bbq them but it's not the best meat, no experience there.
From the article: Miller authored the “pork chopper” bill, passed in 2011, which famously allowed licensed Texans to snipe at pigs from helicopters. Hunters, emboldened further by 2019’s Senate Bill 317, which waived the need for a license to kill wild pigs, now stalk them year round, on land and aerially.
Right, anyone can hunt pigs for their own consumption or give the meat away to friends for free. But it generally can't be sold commercially because the process doesn't comply with food safety rules.
Maui Nui has obtained USDA approval to sell commercially hunted venison. So presumably someone could do the same thing with feral pigs. Just have to follow the certification process.
