Looks like a lot of fun. This is an interesting situation. Those wild pigs initially got loose from the very farmers they are now pestering. My guess is that with all that open space and all that available food stuffs plus the ability of a sow to have 2 liters of a dozen piglets per year and you get a hot mess that cannot be solved.

Im surprised these traps are not designed with an overhang type of barrier at the top. You can see the hog jumping at 7:08. He nearly made it. If the traps had a slanted panel at the top it would make it much harder for the hogs to escape, so not sure why they didnt design that in?
