Jerb,

Years ago we had a duck lease and an outfitter had the hog rights. Folks from all over the country came to hunt with this outfitter who is no longer in business. One morning when we finished the duck hunt, one of the outfitter’s men was standing near his truck on the rice field dike with the tailgate down and an open cage. He had just released a “wild” boar into the marsh. He said he could hear the dogs coming up in pursuit so he needed to skedaddle before the “sports” saw him and put two and two together. No doubt the boar was wild before trapping, but I don’t believe the brochure described this procedure in detail—“catch and release” hog hunting. wink
On the land there was another area that food was put out for the hogs in the woods. The local Krispy Kreme owner would give the outfitter the day old doughnuts to “bait” hogs and hold them in the area. The hogs got addicted to the doughnuts and hovered in the woods while the doughnuts were dropped-off. Wild America.
