just read it may be a hoax, some trick photography. They also ground the whole thing into sausagebefore many people could see and didnt even announce the kill until 1 month later. I dont know for sure.

 

if it does turn out to be a hoax we should hunt down them and turn them into sausage !

 

I'm not saying it is impossible, but hogzilla a few years back checked out to be true despite aggressive attacks that it was not real. But...to alieviate allof this, even some bumkin from po-dunk knows better than to get a kill like this, take one or two crappy pics of it and ground the whole thing into sausage, and then come back a month later saying you got a record kill and wonder why people think it's fake. I caught a 32in speckled trout one time, went 9lb 4oz and I about **** myself when I landed that thing. I took a gazillion pics, pics of me holding it, pics of it in every way next to a measuring tape ect.....I dropped what I was doing, wrapped it in a wet towel and took it to the nearest official weigh station up the road a few miles, turn out it was 1in short and about 2lbs light to touch the state record, guy said he gets in 1-2 a week like it. Point is, had I took a bum shot and told all my buddies about this monster trout, and oh yea, I filleted it, sorry no pics, they'd be like, yea whatever man. So, if you get a monster hog like this, call the damn local news crew to come check it out. We used to land big sharks once in a while from the pier, and when we got a good one, we'd call the local news and they'd come out and do a quick bit on it, and the story was solid.

 

Good point Troop...I just trusted the media without confirming any back story. Big G.D. pig...and the animal is really huge, too!

poor piggy fred ... makes you wonder. that in an area like that when those people were selling off their pigs , other people must have known that there was a huge hog that was raised and then went missing. the new "owner" probably got together with the kids dad and said that they could make a fortune off of this monster hog . i wonder if he (the son) still gets to keep his role in the monster hog movie ?

 

Thats probablyas thrilling as huntinga.......Pet Hippopotamus!!

 

 

bloody massive!
