Wondering what the dimensions of wild pig/hog cage traps generally run? I'm thinking something about 48 to 54 inches long/deep , about 36 to 40 inches tall and about 24 to 30 inches wide Am I anywhere close? Educate me!

Frank,
The bars hang over the trap at an angle.. When to attempting to leap/climb...They push away from the panel and fall back down. Or they get their feet or head between the overhang and trap and fall back in.
Piled up hogs have the same problem getting out... the overhang pushes them back in.
I think I need to make my overhang wider....thanks Sam

Most folks around here make a pen, Big as a room,that way you can catch several at one time. They make em from cattle panel and bait with soured corn.
