America has millions of wild pigs roaming across the country, destroying crops, damaging farmland, spreading disease, and costing billions of dollars every year.

So the obvious question is simple:

Why don’t Americans just eat them?

In this video, we explore the strange story behind America’s feral hog problem — from history and hunting to food safety laws, disease risks, the pork industry, and even radioactive wild boar in Europe. What looks like a simple food problem turns out to be a much bigger story about law, money, nature, and the modern food system.

This is the story of why one of America’s biggest free food sources is almost impossible to buy.
