I have looked at lots of videos (a hundred?) dealing with hog trapping and eradication. This looks like a really good system that addresses some of the basic problems with trapping. Typical traps have a door that either falls or is spring loaded to close, and one got-away could repopulate an area.

The simplest trap will have the pig bump a trigger that drops the door. A larger design will usually incorporate at least one or two spring loaded gates that establish a one way system for pigs to enter and hopefully not get out.

If you watch the videos with spring loaded gates. What usually happens it is possible for a pig to work his way out as another is coming into the trap. I saw one outfit that would set up a series of panels that would all drop simultaneously when triggered remotely. Cameras, night vision, remote activation, yada yada, yada, very expensive, and a one shot deal. Ooops missed one that could repopulate the area.
This is elegant in its simplicity. Bait the area and get the pigs used to going under the net, and the rest in history.

Yep, my cousin catches around a dozen every other time he sets up the brig. Also I think he got reimbursed for a part of the cost from the govt. ?

Thankfully haven’t had a pig problem YET. Only have seen one and a 7x57 round took the fight right out of it. This trap looks promising though and will keep it in mind if porky pig starts showing up on camera.
