The European wild boar is actually very good to eat, lean dark meat unless of course like with everything you get a very old boar (you know "the trophy kind"). Don't you guys read anything into my comments, though, please. Still it is a pest destroying potato fields. They are also moving into populated areas rooting in garbage, much like bears in out neck of the woods. I understand, though that the North American kind is a cross between the domestic one and the imported wild kind and is altogether a different matter. Is it edible? Anybody in the crowd is a hunter, or hangs around with hunters.? ---Original Message----- From: Mark Mazer Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2013 3:44 PM To: Pacific Bulb Society Subject: Re: [pbs] Wildlife in the City Dread the day feral pigs move into the neighborhood.
