Loose lips sink ships when it comes to Barr hogs
Preach!

We don’t mark the ears or dub the tails anymore, not very many at all around here that are “old school”, and when marked Barr hogs were being shot during deer season it turning up in traps we were immediately getting the finger pointed at our group, especially by other dog hunters bc it “educated” the hogs, the more educated they get I stay one step smarter at their own game, and have bred dogs to suit these PhD. Of pork that are claimed to be roaming these hills, and in return in creates jealousy and resentment, so we take our pictures for our own sake and memories and that’s about all you’ll hear of our hunts, so what we’ve started doing is any hog we catch and work we keep a pair of tin snips on the bikes and we’ll dub the left side hoof on sows and right side hoof on Barr’s, so when we see a track with an uneven hoof we know what we’re going after and no one has the sense to figure out why some hogs feet are messed up, one fella has noticed and said something but figured they were getting out of traps and messing their feet up in the process...
