Lets see your wild pig trailers

This is the current regs that Saltwater Slick is going off about
Texas Administrative Code

I will do what I want. Furthermore, I never said anything about transporting from one property to another and releasing them. You assumed that genius! I asked a question about trailers and you decided to go on a tangent lecturing me about things that do not apply to what I plan to do. Perhaps you should ask more questions before assuming and being a jack@ss about it.

Welcome to TBH censorship.

I haven’t trapped and sold any in several years. However, the place I sold them to is still in operation and can be easily seen from a state highway. It’s no more than 100 yards off the road in plain sight. Don’t you think that if it was illegal to transport them, these facilities would’ve been shut down years ago? Or, LEO would just sit nearby and wait for a trapper to try to bring them into a facility? There’s a guy here in town that basically traps hogs for a living. He’s got a huge transport trailer. Wish I had a picture to send you. I used to just load them up in my stock trailer. They can and will climb though, so it’s MUCH better to have a top on your trailer. Have separate compartments in it, so you can lock the first batch of caught hogs in the front while you’re loading up the next ones.

I’ll ask a question then. If you’re not planning to transport them, why do you need a trailer ? I trap hogs too, but I don’t need to haul them anywhere so I’m not familiar with the law. The only trip mine get is a trip to the bone pile.

Move little ones from trap to a pen. Trailer would be off-road only. I could use one of my cattle trailers but do not want to drag them through the brush

The big problem is loading them from the trap to the trailer. That is where they will get out. My brother had a narrow tunnel/shute that was made out of hog panels and square tubing that was about 6ft long. He was use this to load out of the trap onto the trailer. He would hang it on the side of his trailer. Wish I had a picture.

wow! i just wanted to see a picture of a hog trailer but dam all i see is useless comments. Hope you find a good idea.

OP, the Meateater did an episode, "Lone Star Park: Texas Hog." At the 12:47 minute mark you can see how he gets the hogs out of the trap and into the trailer.

Hope, folks will post the pics of their setup which was your orginal ask.

I’ve seen ranches and trappers use “old” stock trailers with a top, as most have said. Probably just takes a little customization to fit your needs.

Crap be a man and just hog tie them and chunk them in the back of your truck, we did it all the time when we ran dogs.








just giving you a hard time but really curious how you are going to use them for brush control.

All he ask for was pictures of your hog trailer.

[AntlerCollector]

Wow! I came on here hoping for trailer ideas. Carry on.

The hog buying facility by our place has a trailer they will let you use if you don’t have one .

Nothing fancy. We have several and usually waited until until we had about 30 or 40 before hauling to slaughter house. LDWF got stupid with regulations and made it to much trouble and $$$ to continue. For a couple years our trap guys caught and removed 500+ wild hogs a year. Word is new governor is looking to revert back to common sense policies on trapping and selling wild hogs.( for slaughter) I am a fan of regs for moving from from one property to another. Our goal is to remove and if they are eliminated so be it. But doubt they can be eliminated. Having had over 1500 removed over a few years you could barel tell during and was back to being covered after the trapping/removal stopped.

I didn't read all the replies until after. Anyway I just posted pics about what we were using before LDWF got stupid with regs.
