If you've ever complained that hunting season doesn't last long enough, you'll love wild boar. From dangerous close-up shots behind dogs to quiet stalks in the deep woods, hunting the wild hog provides some of the most thrilling action anywhere. And because the wild boar is an introduced species that often wreaks havoc on native habitat, most state game agencies encourage hunters to take these adaptable creatures. For the hunter, that means nearly unlimited opportunities year-round across North America. In this complete guide, veteran boar hunter Todd Triplett details everything you need to know to take these tasty game animals, including: Distribution and history Scouting for prime habitat, bedding areas, and food sources Interpreting sign like tracks, scat, rubs, and wallows Hunting over bait, still-hunting, and hunting with hounds Special considerations for hunting in the off-season Pursuing wild boar across North America and around the world Hunting javelina, the wild boar's distant relative in the Southwest Chasing the warthog in Africa, the ultimate in hog hunting Preparing wild boar for the table and taxidermist And a host of tips for a successful hunt Based on the knowledge gained from a lifetime of hunting, The Complete Book of Wild Boar Hunting is an unsurpassed introduction to a fascinating sport.
