Default Neat-O feral hog trap

Saw this on a CGN thread and it really impressed me.

Pigs are real smart and hard to trap, by the looks of the ground under the cage they've caught a few in this trap before!
Little piggy on the left didn't fare so well, not a video I'd have aired just because of the activists who have no idea of what destruction these critters do every day, no sense giving them ammo.

That's a good design but I think they might get wary of it after a while

Best feral hog trap I've seen so far. Looks like the trap is remote tripped, so you can stop educating the ones that didn't quite get caught.

One could incorporate a switch that trips when the cage has triggered and use that switch to trigger some type of communication device/ alarm that alerts someone to attend it.

I don't know how 'veal bacon' tastes, would one be better off to raise them in captivity so as not to have too much bacon all at once?

So, this begs the question:

1.) Louisiana, or
2.) Traeger?

There was a strong market for them. They would go to a feedlot and then an abattoir.
