Each state has different laws that govern how feral hogs are handled. It is illegal to remove feral pigs from the trap while alive in most states and situations. Some states will allow live transport to slaughterhouses, and others will permit live transport under certain conditions. Please check with your state agency.
We have found that some researchers and agencies prefer our trap since the net walls reduce the potential for injury to the animal. Trapping isn't an easy business, and we try to impress upon our customers the need for speedy euthanasia and humane handling. It means a lot to us. We are happy to answer any questions about the best methods for humanely euthanizing feral hogs in the trap with a firearm.
