Hi,

I work for the Nursing Department at UHH. An orphaned boar got left in my
back yard about two years ago as a baby. I have raised him in a paddock
on corn and year greens ever since.

Recently I heard that the ag department had donated pigs for persons in need.
As a nurse...and not a farmer...I would neither be able to release this guy to 
the wild nor harvest him.

For a black boar, he is friendly....no aggressive...but he is starting to grow tusks...and now weighs 150+...

Can I donate him free to a good cause?
