    Have your dad throw a bucket of water on him if it gets hot or have him put a sheet of tin or plywood on top of the trap after he's caught until you get there.

      Let pops shoot him if trapped and you can drag out later.

        The game warden would probably say you need to check your trap every 24 hours no less.

            I am guessing that the people who are saying to be nice to the pig do not own land and/or depend on agriculture for their living. Wild hogs are a pest. They are just a big rat. Granted you can eat them but I guess you could also eat a rat if you wanted too. Set the trap. If it dies prior to you getting there then fine but I think it will probably be plenty alive when you arrive.

                  If your worried put a small water trough in there and tie it to the posts.

                    In this colder weather 2-3 days if he has shade!

                    I kill 200+ hogs a year, and still do not like them suffering. Any animal for that matter!

                    That pig is under 190 pounds

                      I kept 5 100+ pounders in a small box trap for 3 days because the guy who wanted them couldn't get to them. On the third day I told him I was going to shoot them and if he wanted them he better get there. It had rained the prior 2 days and it was the worst mess I've ever seen. I will never do that again. When it smells that bad, you won't likely trap any again unless you move it and wash it.

                          Are you going to get him out alive and make a pet out of him or kill him? if he dies what difference does it make if you get him the next day.

                            I'm pretty sure he isnt getting out of it alive either way.

                                Good on you for not intentionally torturing something. I'm all for killing anything that needs to be dead, but no point in making something suffer, even a pig. 1 day should be fine with it being cool, but others above are right, just let dad shoot him.
