How to dress and skin wild boar?
What special precautions should I take in skinning wild hogs in northwest florida? Do they carry disease? Can I have someone process the meat or do I have to do it myself?
For the most part, gut it like a deer. In skinning, you won’t be able to start with a knife and just peel the skin off easily like a deer, it’ll be knife work (and dulling the blade) all the way. Butchering after you have it skinned and gutted is no big deal. If there’s somebody in your community that processes deer, they’ll almost certainly process your hog as well.
In terms of disease, you want to be careful to cook well to avoid the possibility of trichinosis, just as with any pork, and if you want to waste an afternoon you can spend it counting the ticks on the hog’s hide–you’ll find plenty–but there are no major worries, and hog hunting will be a fun diversion that won’t take a lot of work in transition compared to deer hunting.
