Ours is genuinely hunted wild boar (Sus scrofa) from free roaming populations in remote areas in the North of Extremadura, South of Castilla-Leon (specially the Gredos mountains). Spanish hunting season lasts from October to March. They are authentic wild boar, not feral Australian wild pork or mixed farmed animals. The wild boar population in Spain is very healthy, and is even becoming a problem in some areas. In our opinion this is another great example of sustainability and tradition going hand to hand. They are hunted around El Gordo, which is where the meat cutting plant is. These areas are very intense, nuttY scarcely populated, and land is poor, so the most frequent use of land is cereals, but fields usually are left one year every three or five to “rest”, so wild animals have plenty of & rich flavour food.
