The Southern United States has a huge population of feral hogs. These hogs can destroy vegetation, harm other species, and even carry diseases that can be transmitted to humans (Barrios-Garcia & Ballari, 2012). Due to these issues feral hogs are frequently culled and yet the hides are not typically utilized. Therefore, the purpose of this design was to explore feral hog leather for use in apparel.
