Taranaki Pig Hunting (1948): Farmers go on a pig hunt in the backblocks of Taranaki after losing 100 lambs to wild pigs in a week. Once they cross the Upper Waitara River they enter extremely remote country where pigs breed freely. A bounty of one shilling is paid for each snout and tail. The hunters quarter their pigs and load up with 50lbs each for the long trip home.
