akolleth, funny thing is, I could hear that loud, screeching Samuel L. Jackson voice through your post. I'm still in the floor.
Eating Unborn Game

don't think I could butcher them without feeling kind bad, but at the same time I'd feel bad to just leave good meat to rot.
If it makes you feel better, *something* will eat them if you don't... you were out to harvest a full grown hog, and there's no way of knowing it's current fertility state.
I like the meat of a good doe to a buck myself....we just run this risk.

Mmmmm, unborn pork!!! (homer simpson voice)
I've got no problems with it, heck, you could probably just field dress it out and throw it on a normal sized weber grill while the full size piggies cook in a big smoker!
I find it humorous that folks get all sqeamish about eating fetal pigs.
Also humorous is that people get all "sensitive" and "emotional" about shooting boar piglets...If I ever come across any piglets out on a hog hunt, you can bet I am going to get Manson-esque on them with my AR and shoot until I'm outta ammo or the pests find ways away from me. What should I do, "spare" the piglets after I just killed there mom or because they have not reached a "mature" age? I know other female hogs may take up the "orphaned" piglets...but that just means they can grow up and further perpetuate the infestation of their species...
Hogs, boars, pig, piglets, whatever you call them, they are not game animals, there is no season, they are not some mystical mammal of the forest. These are not deer, moose, elk, etc. They are wild pigs that tear up land, steel feed, rut up the ground, etc. They should be treated as roaches and flys. Destroy them with harsh prejudice.
If I shoot 5 or more hogs, I'm only gonna take some select cuts, buzzards and 'yotes gotta eat too!

I am a complete hypocrite on this. Logicallly I do not see a problem with eating the piglets. Personally I would not do it, the "icky factor" is just too high and it just seems gross to me.
That said.. I'll order veal in a restaurant.
So confused....
