While the Missouri Dept. of Conservation doesn't condone "hog hunts" unless they're done in cooperation with their department, the hunting regs have a "shoot on sight" clause in them if you run across them while hunting other game, they are getting to be quite a pain in the rear across the southern half of the state. Given the heavily wooded nature of the area, I wouldn't be surprised at whatever you might run across as far as size, these critters have been here for many years.
I saw two road-kill hogs on I55 north of Cape Giradeau today, they're spreading my way. The son-in-law and I have talked about having a hog hunt.

I think I will pass on the sweetbreads thank you, and I have never eaten scrapple, it seems not to be sold in this region. Wasn't it the eating of brain and nerve tissue that spread mad cow disease in the UK ?
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Hogs are a problem down in Florida. And now we are having to deal with Pythons and Iguanas.
