What is so depressing is the sheer number of feral hogs this farmer was able to catch! So many uninformed people not realizing the scope of this problem. Well done to both the company and the land owner.
I'm a city person, London born, in England. This education I'm receiving from your goodself is incredible. Thank you ! I binge watched your videos last night and now am an armchair expert ! Thank you for explaining that for peanut farmers this is a major problem. I can totally understand now the issues these farmers face.
Among my RUclips favorites are videos on UK rat control, using air rifles and night vision devices. Beats using poison, or killing for mere sport. I feel tempted to take up hunting again Best Wishes from Hogtown, Florida.
Thank y’all for coming up with this great system it truly is a great gift from god iv hit one with my car back in 2018 and it cost $650 in damages to my car I drive a 2006 Chevy impala LT the hog waded about 180- 220 pounds and it’s sucked hitting it but on a positive note a can now say that iv killed 2 hogs in my life so far and this one was the most costly one
Pigs are killed inside the trap enclosure because it is illegal in most states to transport feral swine alive or sell the meat. The US Department of Agriculture does not allow wild pork donations directly to food banks due to swine brucellosis and the pseudorabies virus. Feral swine can be eaten, but it is very important to thoroughly cook wild pork to 165 degrees. Most feral pigs harvested by JAGER PRO™ Hog Control Operators™ are either processed by guests or donated to local families and churches for food. However, there is another perspective to consider. Mission success is based solely on removing the entire sounder from each property since whole-sounder lethal control prevents any pig from escaping, surviving, reproducing or being educated to the removal process. Whether a non-native, agricultural pest is eaten or not has no value in the "damage management" decision-making process. Just as removing all termites, rats and cockroaches from your home to stop future residential damage is more important than ensuring all captured pests are eaten. Insect versus mammal makes no difference to the legal definition of a pest or the Best Management Practices needed to control them. The total number of wild pigs we successfully donate has no bearing on the number of animals we must euthanize. The United States cannot BBQ our way out of the feral swine problem. Any carcasses NOT used for food are buried per Department of Agriculture regulations.
No amount of drunken gunfire can save you from hogs please do not do that, it's bad enough that pigs only natural predators are big cats and hyenas, they'll be worse then the potato famine with the amount of farmland they can destroy in days to weeks
The US Department of Agriculture does not allow wild pork donations directly to food banks due to swine brucellosis and pseudorabies. This is why it is very important to cook wild pork to 160 degrees. To answer your concern, most of the hogs killed by JAGER PRO™ personnel are processed by guest hunters or donated to local families and churches. However, farmers may bury them in a landfill which is the same procedure a pest control company follows after trapping rats from an urban residence.
I am not directly affected by feral hogs yet (they don't seem too numerous here in Virginia) but if I ever do have a problem on my land this is the system I am going to get. It seems you HAVE to get the entiore sounder(s) affecting your property. Trapping or hunting onesies and twosies just isn't going to make a dent in the proiblem.

@@JAGERPRO I have a question for Jager Pro, what is done with the hogs that are killed? Are they butchered as a food source at food banks or personal use or are they destroyed? It seems a waste of a possible food resource if not used.

No sir. The camera also controls the gate trigger. We are keeping it as simple and inexpensive as possible by only using one SIM card. The GSM prototypes for AT&T are currently being tested in the field now while we are finalizing the CDMA technology for Verizon use.
The only market for wild pigs is the buying stations in Texas where the meat is processed and sold to Europe. It is illegal to move a feral hog alive from a Georgia property without a swine brucellosis and pseudorabies test. Every state is different, but intelligent states have passed legislation preventing the movement of wild pigs to stop illegal relocation efforts by ignorant hunters turning them loose and starting new populations.
I understand wild pigs might be nuance for the farmers but being in Russia I am envy for the number of them you have there. Basically you can have a thousand pounds of quality meat per dollar worth of ammo there rather easily.
+Boris Britva, writes _"I understand wild pigs might be nuance for the farmers"_ By 'nuance' I assume you mean 'nuisance' and by 'nuisance' you mean 'destroy the crops and livelihood', right?
Thanks for the compliment Ben. Do you plan to attend the Predator and Wild Hog Expo at the Waco Convention Center next month; 19-21 April? If so, introduce yourself at our booth (#330) so we can visit.
just like to let you guy's know I saw a hog up here in N E PA in pike county last night crossing the road I never though the hog would make it in this mountain train no farms in the area that I live in, I think you guys are doing a wonderful job keep up the good work!
I love watching these videos! How effective have the traps been in reducing the overall population of pigs in the state - not just the farm? That’s the long term goal right? To eliminate them?
Can the hogs' harvested protein/ fat be used in animal feeds or as a source for isolated compounds? Would Brucellosis etc survive commercial high temp processing? I ask because if there was a financial incentive to harvest feral hogs, jumping Asian carp, Everglades pythons (OK recently via bounty), Nutria and other clear, undeniable pestilence... modern wholesale animal/fish collection practices would remedy the situation(s) PDQ. This, a left-handed compliment to modern industrial efficiency.
Question, how were these feral hogs introduced the area? If they aren't native to the area, where do they come from? Love your videos by the way! Very educational! I live in SoCal, so no feral hogs here, but I'm amazed how this is a problem in other states.
I can only speak for my state. I’ve heard similar stories in other places I’ve lived. In the south, Hog farmers used to turn the domesticated pigs loose to forage the country side at no “cost”. At roundup several pigs were missed and over a generation, reverted into these feral pigs. It’s a man made problem from what I understand
@@alquinn3562 wow, I can't believe a domesticated pig can turn like that! It's so interesting to me to see how their behavior is changed once they get out. I love watching these trap videos because they look so satisfying and also so cool to see how they react so fast! I have never seen a pig be that quick. I would like to go to the south to see this in action.
@@lizard2222 I have put several feral pigs down that were trapped and I have speared a nasty old boar with dogs. They run as fast as dogs just don’t have the endurance. They will tire and start to fight the dogs. It’s a adrenaline rush to wade in to a pack of dogs and slide a spear into the hog. It was a bucket list item never to be repeated. Dogs got hurt. You live and learn. Shooting them in a trap is far more humane. Not sporting but humane and necessary.
The illegal transportation and release of feral pigs for recreational hunting purposes is the primary reason for our current problem. Sport hunters are directly responsible for the abrupt surge in population harmfully impacting agriculture, native vegetation, native wildlife, soil properties and water quality in the United States. Regulations need to be enforced in every state to stop intrastate and interstate transportation of feral pigs with heavy fines to criminals releasing them.
@@JAGERPRO I do not doubt that this is the case. But there can be more than one cause to any problem. In southern Oklahoma they were released as a agricultural practice. I have spoken to several who have stated that a generation or two of their parents used this practice. I have speared hogs within a 1000 acre enclosure for sport purposes. Large enough area that you felt they were free ranging feral hogs but were a paid hunt. They catch hogs in the wild, release them in the enclosure and sell hunts with spears and knives with catch dogs. Really wouldn’t do it a second time and didn’t pay for it the first. Seems more responsible to the environment one could argue I guess. Catch, release, spear, remove. I like your system, obvious knowledge and dedication to their removal.
We use a simple equation (people + process + product = performance) to understand, manage and improve Integrated Wild Pig Control® results. Mission failure can be isolated to either untrained people, an ineffective process, an inefficient product or a combination of these variables. We will answer your question by explaining the differences between a JAGER PRO M.I.N.E.® Trapping System and a "suspended" trap. 1. (Cost & Size) A "suspended" trap is twice the expense and half the diameter of our JAGER PRO M.I.N.E.® Trapping System. It is impossible to consistently capture large sounders of 50, 60 and 70 pigs with an 18-foot diameter "suspended" trap. Hog Control Operators™ may erect our M.I.N.E.® Trapping System to any diameter needed to accomplish 100% capture success. 2. (Versatility) A "suspended" trap must be built on flat ground to operate. Our M.I.N.E.® Trapping System can operate on uneven ground in any terrain. 3. (Camera Operating Cost) Their camera costs $65 per month to operate and our JAGER PRO M.I.N.E.® camera only costs $25 per month. 4. (Hog Control Expertise) "Suspended" traps are manufactured and sold by welding and fabrication companies. This means they are experts at welding squeeze chutes, rodeo equipment and livestock scales; not at providing feral swine control advice and leadership. JAGER PRO is the most efficient hog control company in the United States. We innovated thermal shooting and remote-controlled trapping technology and methods from our combined 220 years of military experience. It takes an Integrated Wild Pig Control® approach with multiple methods and technologies to remove the entire pig population from a property. A welding company manufacturing a suspended trap cannot support an integrated, whole-sounder approach. 5. (Patents) "Suspended" traps infringe on JAGER PRO Patent Numbers 9,814,228 and 10,098,339 (Systems and Methods for Animal Trapping). The welding and fabrication companies will not be able to successfully defend their position in pending lawsuits. Willful patent infringement gives rise to treble damages and an award of attorneys’ fees incurred by JAGER PRO during litigation against willful infringers. 6. JAGER PRO has experienced 92% and 94% capture success rates using a M.I.N.E.® Trapping System during the last two 5,000-acre projects. However, our research demonstrates there is still a use for "suspended" traps at the end of a project. The control strategies must continually change throughout the various seasons to effectively target adaptive survivors when using our Integrated Wild Pig Control® approach.
Seems like hogs can reproduce faster than we can trap them, so trapping just limits but does not really eliminate the damage. Wonder if there is a viable long-term solution?
It only takes 15-18 months for a trained and certified Hog Control Operator™ to eliminate feral pig populations from 10,000-acres. But there are several factors which determine how long a property remains at "zero balance" after a successful Integrated Wild Pig Control® (IWPC®) program has been implemented. Future reproduction and migration would have to come from adjacent properties since an effective IWPC® program would prevent escapes, method education and reproduction from the entire generation of feral pigs living on the property. Are neighboring landowners implementing a successful IWPC® program? Are there enough trained and certified Hog Control Operators™ in the county to effectively implement the IWPC® program? Has the state passed legislation to stop intrastate and interstate transportation of feral pigs? How well are law enforcement personnel enforcing these rules in the state? Are judges and the court system prosecuting those breaking the rules with heavy fines? How many criminals are illegally transporting and releasing new feral pig populations in the county? The amount of time a property remains at "zero balance" greatly depends on the answers to the above questions.
We currently have a group of wild pigs in different ages roaming our subdivision neighborhood. People are afraid to walk their dogs in the evening. A cage trap was set up on the empty lot next to us and judging from the squealing, a piglet was caught. But before the guy with the gun arrived, somehow the piglet was freed, maybe by its mother, the trap was still closed and no holes dug underneath. Will the group return to the location or are they smart enough to remember and stay away?
This is the exact reason why we preach whole sounder success and why box traps are not the solution. Our trap ranges from 32-35 ft in diameter. The reason being, is to get the entire sounder in the trap and they still feel comfortable while feeding. It will probably be quite some time if they return or return at all in this case. They are smart, they learn to become trap shy.
I love the professional approach taken by Jager. I wonder if we can use these traps to capture ISIS terrorists? We could use vests as conditioning bait?
This segment will share the success of South Carolina farmer, Jeff Huggins, as he captures 56 hogs in December using the M.I.N.E.™ Trapping System. Crop damage to his peanut fields had caused a great deal of profit loss during 2012. His first trap enclosure caught an entire sounder of 20 hogs on December 4th and his second set caught 36 hogs in another field on December 21st. Jeff Huggins has removed a total of 126 hogs from his farm using a single M.I.N.E.™ Gate in five different locations.
I don't mean to change the subject, but this spring I was turkey hunting and I called up a 250lbs hog on a slate call. It came in running to my lo-cal, where is stopped 2' way from my back and went to chomping its jaws. So I called his bluff and made a 180 with my 12 gauge, but before I could get a bead on him he split and I never got a shot in on him. DC would be a perfect place for some 2 or 3000 razorbacks.
jspin1103 Our goal is to capture the entire sounder at one time. We need to change locations if there were only one sounder in this home range. When multiple sounders are in the same home range, capture the last sounder to visit the feeder each night and kill them immediately. This will minimize their verbal distress communication to other pigs in the area and eliminate scat in the trap. We have captured three sounders in three consecutive nights using this reverse capture methodology.
JAGER PRO™ Killing so many hog leaves a lot of blood in the trap. I know some use fresh earth to cover small trap floors but how do you remove that much scent in your pen trap?
Larry Tischler It is a myth that blood affects pigs at a trap. The main reason pigs will not enter a bloody trap enclosure is because they were standing outside the trap the previous night when other pigs were captured and are now educated that the metal contraption made their family disappear. This video link JAGER PRO™ Hog Trapping (16)- 3 Captures in 3 Consecutive Nights will demonstrate three captures in three consecutive nights after killing pigs in the trap each night. Each group of pigs were eating corn out of the blood from the night before when captured. The key to our success was trapping the last group first, the middle group second and the first group last.
That's one way they spread all over the country, people bringing them into different areas for hunting purposes. Some counties in Texas have passed laws that feral hogs do not leave the property where they were caught alive
We believe every State Feral Swine Regulation should be worded as “Upon taking or capturing or having in possession any feral swine, it shall be unlawful to release said feral swine alive or to transport said live feral swine. All feral swine taken by traps or dogs or otherwise must be killed on site. Furthermore, it shall be unlawful to release any live domestic swine into the wild.” The illegal transportation and release of feral pigs for recreational hunting purposes is the primary reason for our current problem. Sport hunters are directly responsible for the abrupt surge in population harmfully impacting agriculture, native vegetation, native wildlife, soil properties and water quality in the United States. Regulations need to be enforced in every state to stop intrastate and interstate transportation of feral pigs with heavy fines to criminals releasing them.

What would really be cool is if this farmer could actually build a PIG PROCESSING PLANT on his property, and use the meat to market his own fresh pork, with a smoke house on-site to make his own farm-raised bacon and hams. I'd buy the product in a hot second.
It might be "cool" but it is not a valid solution. Farmers cannot BBQ their way out of the feral pig problem. Most farmers raising domestic pork do not build their own processing plant. Also, the threat of disease transmission from feral pigs to domestic livestock is a major concern to the farming industry. Several of these diseases are swine specific (both feral and domestic) but others can affect sheep, goats, cattle, horses, dogs, cats and several species of native wild mammals. Infectious diseases that are significant to livestock include Swine Brucellosis, Pseudorabies Virus (PRV), Bovine tuberculosis (TB), Foot & Mouth Disease, African Swine Fever and Classical Swine Fever (Hog Cholera). Feral pigs are known to carry bacterial diseases such as Brucellosis, Leptospirosis, E. coli, Salmonellosis, Tuberculosis and Tularemia; viral diseases such as African Swine Fever (ASF), Classical Swine Fever (CSF or Hog Cholera), Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD), Hepatitis E Virus (HEV), Influenza A Viruses (H1N1 and H3N2), Porcine Circovirus type 2 (PCV2), Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea (PED), Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS), Pseudorabies Virus (PRV), Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV) and at least 45 different parasites (external and internal) which pose a parasitic disease threat such as Toxoplasmosis and Trichinosis to wildlife, livestock, pets and humans. Zoonotic diseases transmissible from feral pigs to humans include Leptospirosis, Brucellosis, E. coli, Salmonellosis, Toxoplasmosis, Rabies, Swine Influenza Viruses, Trichinosis, Giardiasis and Cryptosporidiosis.
Suddenly, I've changed my mind! I was hoping that these unfortunate farmers could turn something bad into something that could make them a good income. Thanks for getting back.
roger that...maybe an alligator/turtle farm could use it~or just to the rendering plant (winds up in cosmetics, soap) is what they do in N. California.
I thought you got a bull dozer, dozed a hole and pushed them in. thats what I'd do. I'm glad jager pro kills the hogs instead of selling them to someone to release again.
I hope he uses the meat: we've already entered the period of insane beef pricing on the left coast, local restaurants have been removing it from their menus for at least 2 weeks now. All the beef cattle stocks slaughtered due to the once in 60 years droughts mean there is none in the pipeline for next year to replace them.
The NFS is working on that. They've designed a feeding station that can only be opened by rooting behavior. I don't know how successful they've been with it though.

Is it really that expensive when you think about the damage the hogs are doing to your property? It may sound like a lot of money up front, but if you look at other comparable systems, we are actually quite affordable. Land owners must decide whether the money is worth taking care of the problem or continue to let it exist and snowball into something much worse.

My question was not meant to be a condemnation of your program. I understand the damage wild hogs can do. I grew up on a produce farm and we raised our own pigs for food. We were a family of 10 and could not afford to waste anything. We never wasted food and so I am programmed from childhood to consider waste.. My dad made absolutely the best Italian sausage out of our pigs and there were 6 boys in the family who could pack away a lot of meat.. In the old days, the bison were considered a pest and were slaughtered nearly to extinction whereas they were an important food source for the native population. My great great grandfather was an American Indian.. I am glad to know that you do the best you can regarding minimizing wasting this valuable food source. I have had a problem with squirrels.. I don't eat them because they are mostly bones.. The ones I kill don't go directly to waste.. We have a beautiful area red fox and she takes all my squirrels home for lunch. My neighbor has a problem with the foxes however because he used to have free range chickens... Used to.. Mrs Fox has been laying kind of low recently.. Anyway, thanks for the reply.
Stuart Shapiro ma·trix - (noun) Definition: "a situation or environment in which something originates, develops or takes form." Our definition of the Capture Success Matrix is creating an environment (three step process) for whole sounder "capture success" to develop and take form using a M.I.N.E.™ Trapping System. This video demonstrated how a South Carolina peanut farmer followed the Capture Success Matrix to remove 126 pigs from his farm in five separate captures (25 pig average). The farmer had never achieved high volume results before using our system. The Capture Success Matrix created the environment for his "capture success" to develop and take form. We have used our RUclips channel to educate 7.3 million viewers how to accomplish an important agricultural task and raise the national feral swine control standard. It appears you only use your account to make sarcastic comments.
Why you kill too many pigs ?. If you should kill 3 or less for your food. If you kill too many. What do with many dead pigs ? It's stupid to show off on RUclips !!
Did you even listen to the narrator in the beginning? They are overrunning all over the southern states destroying farms and ranches. They DESTROY the natural balance everywhere they move. Since there are no natural predators, they just multiply and wreck havoc everywhere. It is STUPID to make a comment without listening and watching the video.
***** Pseudorabies does mean false rabies because the symptoms of seizures, circling, and excess saliva looks like rabies symptoms. The pseudorabies virus (PRV) is actually related to the herpes virus spread from saliva and nasal discharge. PRV causes sows to have abortions and stillborn pigs. There is also a high mortality rate in piglets contracting PRV less than one month old and the disease is usually fatal to hunting dogs bitten by contagious hogs. Brucellosis is a bacterial disease spread from a pig’s reproductive organs and also known for causing abortion in sows. The disease can be spread to humans and symptoms mimic severe flu. You should always wear protective gloves while field dressing hogs and cook wild pork to 160-165 degrees before eating.
Awesome job!! Keep trapping the hogs!!!
What is so depressing is the sheer number of feral hogs this farmer was able to catch! So many uninformed people not realizing the scope of this problem. Well done to both the company and the land owner.

just say nooooo!
No amount of drunken gunfire can save you from hogs please do not do that, it's bad enough that pigs only natural predators are big cats and hyenas, they'll be worse then the potato famine with the amount of farmland they can destroy in days to weeks
You can thank Bono and the liberals for that. Dumb micks.
Its amazing how fast they multiply.
The US Department of Agriculture does not allow wild pork donations directly to food banks due to swine brucellosis and pseudorabies. This is why it is very important to cook wild pork to 160 degrees. To answer your concern, most of the hogs killed by JAGER PRO™ personnel are processed by guest hunters or donated to local families and churches. However, farmers may bury them in a landfill which is the same procedure a pest control company follows after trapping rats from an urban residence.
I am not directly affected by feral hogs yet (they don't seem too numerous here in Virginia) but if I ever do have a problem on my land this is the system I am going to get.

No sir. The camera also controls the gate trigger. We are keeping it as simple and inexpensive as possible by only using one SIM card. The GSM prototypes for AT&T are currently being tested in the field now while we are finalizing the CDMA technology for Verizon use.
I dig your methodical way of going about it.
The only market for wild pigs is the buying stations in Texas where the meat is processed and sold to Europe. It is illegal to move a feral hog alive from a Georgia property without a swine brucellosis and pseudorabies test. Every state is different, but intelligent states have passed legislation preventing the movement of wild pigs to stop illegal relocation efforts by ignorant hunters turning them loose and starting new populations.
Won't be surprised if the un-intelligent states are democrats!
I understand wild pigs might be nuance for the farmers but being in Russia I am envy for the number of them you have there. Basically you can have a thousand pounds of quality meat per dollar worth of ammo there rather easily.
+Boris Britva, writes _"I understand wild pigs might be nuance for the farmers"_
By 'nuance' I assume you mean 'nuisance' and by 'nuisance' you mean 'destroy the crops and livelihood', right?
You guys have it "goin' on"! Good on you!
Thanks for the compliment Ben. Do you plan to attend the Predator and Wild Hog Expo at the Waco Convention Center next month; 19-21 April? If so, introduce yourself at our booth (#330) so we can visit.
just like to let you guy's know I saw a hog up here in N E PA in pike county last night crossing the road I never though the hog would make it in this mountain train no farms in the area that I live in, I think you guys are doing a wonderful job keep up the good work!
Where in pike county?? I farm in pike and wayne.
I love watching these videos! How effective have the traps been in reducing the overall population of pigs in the state - not just the farm? That’s the long term goal right? To eliminate them?
Does the gate trigger also require a separate sim card from the game camera?
Very nice system....... It's capturing properly in nights ?
Can the hogs' harvested protein/ fat be used in animal feeds or as a source for isolated compounds?
Would Brucellosis etc survive commercial high temp processing?
I ask because if there was a financial incentive to harvest feral hogs, jumping Asian carp, Everglades pythons (OK recently via bounty), Nutria and other clear, undeniable pestilence...
modern wholesale animal/fish collection practices would remedy the situation(s) PDQ.
This, a left-handed compliment to modern industrial efficiency.
Fantastisch! Das brauchen wir in Europa!
Question, how were these feral hogs introduced the area? If they aren't native to the area, where do they come from? Love your videos by the way! Very educational! I live in SoCal, so no feral hogs here, but I'm amazed how this is a problem in other states.
I can only speak for my state. I’ve heard similar stories in other places I’ve lived. In the south, Hog farmers used to turn the domesticated pigs loose to forage the country side at no “cost”. At roundup several pigs were missed and over a generation, reverted into these feral pigs. It’s a man made problem from what I understand
@@alquinn3562 wow, I can't believe a domesticated pig can turn like that! It's so interesting to me to see how their behavior is changed once they get out. I love watching these trap videos because they look so satisfying and also so cool to see how they react so fast! I have never seen a pig be that quick. I would like to go to the south to see this in action.
@@lizard2222 I have put several feral pigs down that were trapped and I have speared a nasty old boar with dogs. They run as fast as dogs just don’t have the endurance. They will tire and start to fight the dogs. It’s a adrenaline rush to wade in to a pack of dogs and slide a spear into the hog. It was a bucket list item never to be repeated. Dogs got hurt. You live and learn. Shooting them in a trap is far more humane. Not sporting but humane and necessary.
The illegal transportation and release of feral pigs for recreational hunting purposes is the primary reason for our current problem. Sport hunters are directly responsible for the abrupt surge in population harmfully impacting agriculture, native vegetation, native wildlife, soil properties and water quality in the United States. Regulations need to be enforced in every state to stop intrastate and interstate transportation of feral pigs with heavy fines to criminals releasing them.
@@JAGERPRO I do not doubt that this is the case. But there can be more than one cause to any problem. In southern Oklahoma they were released as a agricultural practice. I have spoken to several who have stated that a generation or two of their parents used this practice. I have speared hogs within a 1000 acre enclosure for sport purposes. Large enough area that you felt they were free ranging feral hogs but were a paid hunt. They catch hogs in the wild, release them in the enclosure and sell hunts with spears and knives with catch dogs. Really wouldn’t do it a second time and didn’t pay for it the first. Seems more responsible to the environment one could argue I guess. Catch, release, spear, remove. I like your system, obvious knowledge and dedication to their removal.
Beautiful! Cant wait till I get one :)
what do you do with the hogs after you put them down? that is alot of dead wait.
What is the success rate of traps with gates vs. The traps were the whole bottom ring drops?
We use a simple equation (people + process + product = performance) to understand, manage and improve Integrated Wild Pig Control® results. Mission failure can be isolated to either untrained people, an ineffective process, an inefficient product or a combination of these variables. We will answer your question by explaining the differences between a JAGER PRO M.I.N.E.® Trapping System and a "suspended" trap.
1. (Cost & Size) A "suspended" trap is twice the expense and half the diameter of our JAGER PRO M.I.N.E.® Trapping System. It is impossible to consistently capture large sounders of 50, 60 and 70 pigs with an 18-foot diameter "suspended" trap. Hog Control Operators™ may erect our M.I.N.E.® Trapping System to any diameter needed to accomplish 100% capture success.
2. (Versatility) A "suspended" trap must be built on flat ground to operate. Our M.I.N.E.® Trapping System can operate on uneven ground in any terrain.
3. (Camera Operating Cost) Their camera costs $65 per month to operate and our JAGER PRO M.I.N.E.® camera only costs $25 per month.
4. (Hog Control Expertise) "Suspended" traps are manufactured and sold by welding and fabrication companies. This means they are experts at welding squeeze chutes, rodeo equipment and livestock scales; not at providing feral swine control advice and leadership. JAGER PRO is the most efficient hog control company in the United States. We innovated thermal shooting and remote-controlled trapping technology and methods from our combined 220 years of military experience. It takes an Integrated Wild Pig Control® approach with multiple methods and technologies to remove the entire pig population from a property. A welding company manufacturing a suspended trap cannot support an integrated, whole-sounder approach.
5. (Patents) "Suspended" traps infringe on JAGER PRO Patent Numbers 9,814,228 and 10,098,339 (Systems and Methods for Animal Trapping). The welding and fabrication companies will not be able to successfully defend their position in pending lawsuits. Willful patent infringement gives rise to treble damages and an award of attorneys’ fees incurred by JAGER PRO during litigation against willful infringers.
6. JAGER PRO has experienced 92% and 94% capture success rates using a M.I.N.E.® Trapping System during the last two 5,000-acre projects. However, our research demonstrates there is still a use for "suspended" traps at the end of a project. The control strategies must continually change throughout the various seasons to effectively target adaptive survivors when using our Integrated Wild Pig Control® approach.
Seems like hogs can reproduce faster than we can trap them, so trapping just limits but does not really eliminate the damage. Wonder if there is a viable long-term solution?
It only takes 15-18 months for a trained and certified Hog Control Operator™ to eliminate feral pig populations from 10,000-acres. But there are several factors which determine how long a property remains at "zero balance" after a successful Integrated Wild Pig Control® (IWPC®) program has been implemented. Future reproduction and migration would have to come from adjacent properties since an effective IWPC® program would prevent escapes, method education and reproduction from the entire generation of feral pigs living on the property.
Are neighboring landowners implementing a successful IWPC® program?
Are there enough trained and certified Hog Control Operators™ in the county to effectively implement the IWPC® program?
Has the state passed legislation to stop intrastate and interstate transportation of feral pigs?
How well are law enforcement personnel enforcing these rules in the state?
Are judges and the court system prosecuting those breaking the rules with heavy fines?
How many criminals are illegally transporting and releasing new feral pig populations in the county?
The amount of time a property remains at "zero balance" greatly depends on the answers to the above questions.
We currently have a group of wild pigs in different ages roaming our subdivision neighborhood. People are afraid to walk their dogs in the evening. A cage trap was set up on the empty lot next to us and judging from the squealing, a piglet was caught. But before the guy with the gun arrived, somehow the piglet was freed, maybe by its mother, the trap was still closed and no holes dug underneath. Will the group return to the location or are they smart enough to remember and stay away?
This is the exact reason why we preach whole sounder success and why box traps are not the solution. Our trap ranges from 32-35 ft in diameter. The reason being, is to get the entire sounder in the trap and they still feel comfortable while feeding. It will probably be quite some time if they return or return at all in this case. They are smart, they learn to become trap shy.
I love the professional approach taken by Jager. I wonder if we can use these traps to capture ISIS terrorists? We could use vests as conditioning bait?
sicko
That farmer losing his crops. That's costly
and the cost of a 2 month operation was?
I think we are just starting to trap pests in numbers and if there are some sort of calls that bring them in it would help.
This segment will share the success of South Carolina farmer, Jeff Huggins, as he captures 56 hogs in December using the M.I.N.E.™ Trapping System. Crop damage to his peanut fields had caused a great deal of profit loss during 2012. His first trap enclosure caught an entire sounder of 20 hogs on December 4th and his second set caught 36 hogs in another field on December 21st. Jeff Huggins has removed a total of 126 hogs from his farm using a single M.I.N.E.™ Gate in five different locations.
I don't mean to change the subject, but this spring I was turkey hunting and I called up a 250lbs hog on a slate call. It came in running to my lo-cal, where is stopped 2' way from my back and went to chomping its jaws. So I called his bluff and made a 180 with my 12 gauge, but before I could get a bead on him he split and I never got a shot in on him. DC would be a perfect place for some 2 or 3000 razorbacks.
Well done awesome
Are you saying our application of current technology in the field is NOT effective?
JUST GREAT !
I didn't know hogs were so smart. So after 1 big catch I assume you have change location? I guess it depends right?
jspin1103 Our goal is to capture the entire sounder at one time. We need to change locations if there were only one sounder in this home range. When multiple sounders are in the same home range, capture the last sounder to visit the feeder each night and kill them immediately. This will minimize their verbal distress communication to other pigs in the area and eliminate scat in the trap. We have captured three sounders in three consecutive nights using this reverse capture methodology.
JAGER PRO™ Killing so many hog leaves a lot of blood in the trap. I know some use fresh earth to cover small trap floors but how do you remove that much scent in your pen trap?
Larry Tischler It is a myth that blood affects pigs at a trap. The main reason pigs will not enter a bloody trap enclosure is because they were standing outside the trap the previous night when other pigs were captured and are now educated that the metal contraption made their family disappear.
This video link JAGER PRO™ Hog Trapping (16)- 3 Captures in 3 Consecutive Nights will demonstrate three captures in three consecutive nights after killing pigs in the trap each night. Each group of pigs were eating corn out of the blood from the night before when captured. The key to our success was trapping the last group first, the middle group second and the first group last.
JAGER PRO™ Thanks. I knew leaving them educates others.
That's one way they spread all over the country, people bringing them into different areas for hunting purposes. Some counties in Texas have passed laws that feral hogs do not leave the property where they were caught alive
We believe every State Feral Swine Regulation should be worded as “Upon taking or capturing or having in possession any feral swine, it shall be unlawful to release said feral swine alive or to transport said live feral swine. All feral swine taken by traps or dogs or otherwise must be killed on site. Furthermore, it shall be unlawful to release any live domestic swine into the wild.” The illegal transportation and release of feral pigs for recreational hunting purposes is the primary reason for our current problem. Sport hunters are directly responsible for the abrupt surge in population harmfully impacting agriculture, native vegetation, native wildlife, soil properties and water quality in the United States. Regulations need to be enforced in every state to stop intrastate and interstate transportation of feral pigs with heavy fines to criminals releasing them.
Nice!!!
I will make arrangements to get down that way, see you then.
Thanks,
Ben
love this ,
awesome what fun !
would love to have one or two in my freezer,i wish
this is great. Leave 2 or 3 dead ones and set up that night with a suppressed rifle to get some yotes, too!
The system appears simple and effective however your application of current technologies in the field is anything but, Great work !
Le toca algo al Mick Jagger ese...? Pregunto. Porque sólo tiene que colocar un altavoz, y ya no hay cochino que se acerque.
what did they do with all these pigs?
Pigs are killed inside the trap enclosure because it is illegal in most states to transport feral swine alive or sell the meat. The US Department of Agriculture does not allow wild pork donations directly to food banks due to swine brucellosis and the pseudorabies virus. Feral swine can be eaten, but it is very important to thoroughly cook wild pork to 165 degrees. Most feral pigs harvested by JAGER PRO™ Hog Control Operators™ are either processed by guests or donated to local families and churches for food. However, there is another perspective to consider. Mission success is based solely on removing the entire sounder from each property since whole-sounder lethal control prevents any pig from escaping, surviving, reproducing or being educated to the removal process.

Any carcasses NOT used for food are buried per Department of Agriculture regulations.

ngl, that pic of the fetuses rly emphasized how fast hogs reproduce. Makes you realize why pigs were domesticated
What would really be cool is if this farmer could actually build a PIG PROCESSING PLANT on his property, and use the meat to market his own fresh pork, with a smoke house on-site to make his own farm-raised bacon and hams. I'd buy the product in a hot second.
It might be "cool" but it is not a valid solution. Farmers cannot BBQ their way out of the feral pig problem. Most farmers raising domestic pork do not build their own processing plant. Also, the threat of disease transmission from feral pigs to domestic livestock is a major concern to the farming industry. Several of these diseases are swine specific (both feral and domestic) but others can affect sheep, goats, cattle, horses, dogs, cats and several species of native wild mammals. Infectious diseases that are significant to livestock include Swine Brucellosis, Pseudorabies Virus (PRV), Bovine tuberculosis (TB), Foot & Mouth Disease, African Swine Fever and Classical Swine Fever (Hog Cholera).
Feral pigs are known to carry bacterial diseases such as Brucellosis, Leptospirosis, E. coli, Salmonellosis, Tuberculosis and Tularemia; viral diseases such as African Swine Fever (ASF), Classical Swine Fever (CSF or Hog Cholera), Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD), Hepatitis E Virus (HEV), Influenza A Viruses (H1N1 and H3N2), Porcine Circovirus type 2 (PCV2), Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea (PED), Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS), Pseudorabies Virus (PRV), Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV) and at least 45 different parasites (external and internal) which pose a parasitic disease threat such as Toxoplasmosis and Trichinosis to wildlife, livestock, pets and humans.
Zoonotic diseases transmissible from feral pigs to humans include Leptospirosis, Brucellosis, E. coli, Salmonellosis, Toxoplasmosis, Rabies, Swine Influenza Viruses, Trichinosis, Giardiasis and Cryptosporidiosis.
Suddenly, I've changed my mind! I was hoping that these unfortunate farmers could turn something bad into something that could make them a good income. Thanks for getting back.
Shooting, especially from a helicopter, is super fun but rather ineffective vs trapping.
That guy caught a shit load. They're overrun with them.

Your system is ingenius, but the simple fact is that a vast majority of viewers who watch these videos want to see carnage.
I've seen wild hogs in Italy and boy are they big. Why would you want them wandering around.

56 ? He said 36 ...
I hope he uses the meat: we've already entered the period of insane beef pricing on the left coast, local restaurants have been removing it from their menus for at least 2 weeks now. All the beef cattle stocks slaughtered due to the once in 60 years droughts mean there is none in the pipeline for next year to replace them.
Why not poison them
They are sorta immune to toxins, thats why they eat trash feces and their own kind.
Poisoning is the worst thing you could do. This way is efficient, humane, and you get a nice bonus of boar meat!
It's almost impossible to poison a hog, not to mention that other animals (birds, deer, raccoons) feed as well.
The NFS is working on that. They've designed a feeding station that can only be opened by rooting behavior. I don't know how successful they've been with it though.
Can we buy the meat from you
But...do you get to eat the pigs?
Pigs are killed inside the trap enclosure because it is illegal in most states to transport feral swine alive.

Too heavy to ship to hawaii yeah?
What a great way to get rid of these pests
Yeah, but the 56 is a drop in the bucket
I wish I knew a trapper. I really like pork.
Love to hunt them, but I don't eat things with diseases. Sorry! A buddy of mine just about died, so I cut the hog meat out.
The only problem with your system is it's to expensive for us poor people with hog problems!
Is it really that expensive when you think about the damage the hogs are doing to your property? It may sound like a lot of money up front, but if you look at other comparable systems, we are actually quite affordable. Land owners must decide whether the money is worth taking care of the problem or continue to let it exist and snowball into something much worse.
So much food..
Can you eat those

My question was not meant to be a condemnation of your program. I understand the damage wild hogs can do.
I grew up on a produce farm and we raised our own pigs for food. We were a family of 10 and could not afford to waste anything. We never wasted food and so I am programmed from childhood to consider waste.. My dad made absolutely the best Italian sausage out of our pigs and there were 6 boys in the family who could pack away a lot of meat..
In the old days, the bison were considered a pest and were slaughtered nearly to extinction whereas they were an important food source for the native population. My great great grandfather was an American Indian.. I am glad to know that you do the best you can regarding minimizing wasting this valuable food source.
I have had a problem with squirrels.. I don't eat them because they are mostly bones.. The ones I kill don't go directly to waste.. We have a beautiful area red fox and she takes all my squirrels home for lunch. My neighbor has a problem with the foxes however because he used to have free range chickens... Used to.. Mrs Fox has been laying kind of low recently..
Anyway, thanks for the reply.

Our definition of the Capture Success Matrix is creating an environment (three step process) for whole sounder "capture success" to develop and take form using a M.I.N.E.™ Trapping System. This video demonstrated how a South Carolina peanut farmer followed the Capture Success Matrix to remove 126 pigs from his farm in five separate captures (25 pig average). The farmer had never achieved high volume results before using our system. The Capture Success Matrix created the environment for his "capture success" to develop and take form.

Why you kill too many pigs ?. If you should kill 3 or less for your food. If you kill too many. What do with many dead pigs ? It's stupid to show off on RUclips !!
Did you even listen to the narrator in the beginning? They are overrunning all over the southern states destroying farms and ranches. They DESTROY the natural balance everywhere they move. Since there are no natural predators, they just multiply and wreck havoc everywhere. It is STUPID to make a comment without listening and watching the video.
***** Pseudorabies does mean false rabies because the symptoms of seizures, circling, and excess saliva looks like rabies symptoms. The pseudorabies virus (PRV) is actually related to the herpes virus spread from saliva and nasal discharge. PRV causes sows to have abortions and stillborn pigs. There is also a high mortality rate in piglets contracting PRV less than one month old and the disease is usually fatal to hunting dogs bitten by contagious hogs.
Brucellosis is a bacterial disease spread from a pig’s reproductive organs and also known for causing abortion in sows. The disease can be spread to humans and symptoms mimic severe flu. You should always wear protective gloves while field dressing hogs and cook wild pork to 160-165 degrees before eating.
