Packaging[edit]

The Code of Federal Regulations number 317.2 stipulates that the term "Wild boar" may appear on packaging, as long as the words "Meat From Feral Swine" either immediately follow, or if the term is marked with an asterisk as "Wild boar*" then the statement may appear (prominently) elsewhere on the product packaging.[1]

Other permitted labels under the regulation include "Wild Boar Meat from Feral Swine", and "Wild Boar (by-product) from Feral Swine".[1]

To obtain authorization to market such products, the manufacturer must supply the regulatory body which describes the animals used (in broad terms of characteristics), as well as statements about the living environment and means of capture used.[1]

The animals must live in a "nonrestrictive environment that permits foraging for uncultivated food, natural selection, and breeding, and farrowing without confinement".[1]
