Looks good! A lot of work goes into putting those up.
Looks like a full size pig could jump over the fence though. Is that 48"?

I have had a smaller one the same height and caught hogs that weighed nearly 300 lbs and they never got out. The ones that escape are the little piglets that can fit through the 4”x4” holes.

I need to build one myself. Explain the door, how it works and how you made it please.
It is 2x4 cut 7’ with 2x2 cut 7’ screwed on to one side of the 2x4s to create a channel for the 32” plywood door. Then run 3-2x4s cut 4’ across at the top and bottom and then one about 4’ from bottom. The top cross brace has a small pulley attached and there is a latch screwed onto to the plywood that a parachute cord is attached. The cord is then attached to piece of hardy wood (cedar or hickory) and creates a trigger when placed against two pieces of rebar driven into the ground. When hogs root in pop the stick loose the door is dropped like a guillotine. I will take some pics and post when I go Back to set the trap. I’m haven’t set it yet giving the hogs a chance to get used to going in first.

Man that’s cool. Yeah I gotta make one for sure. First year I’ve had any stick around through gun season. I gotta start trapping some.

Nice, hopefully you will catch a bunch

What are the two small live traps for?

Yes the two small traps are for the coons. Along with 5 thumb traps that are around the perimeter.
