800lb. Alabama Hog Taken

[MrsGungho]

So how do we defined "wild"? Domestic pigs that get loose will turn feral in just a couple of weeks. Their hair will grow longer, they'll grow tusks, and they'll start acting like they were always wild. In my opinion, they're "wild" at that point, regardless of their origins.

That pig may have been born and raised on a farm, but by the time he was shot and turned into bacon and delicious, delicious tenderloins, he was wild.

Wild or not, I would have shot the thing too. I wasn't condemning the man who shot it, just stating what I read.

Agreed!

Pigs can be really dangerous and they will eat people under the right circumstances.

And, they're delicious.

Which begs the question, do they think people are delicious when they eat them? Would a pig go hog wild over long pig bacon?

I was going to post up a "Fat girl Gone Wild" video but after screening it I wouldn't do this to anyone else.

... one poster says it was a penned hog that got out while it's owner was on vacation. But telling that doesn't make the story

The whole story is that the owner on vacation was Mason Verger...

They will also kill and eat each other under the right circumstances. Many of the largest wild hogs have obtained their size in part by supplementing their diets with a higher than normal amount of protein. As for being delicious in this particular case, not likely since it was a large old boar and even worse according to the article it was not weighed until the next day. The carcass likely wasn't gutted for 10+ hours in the middle of summer in Alabama. No thanks!

In my daydream about the enormous slices of bacon, it was much better than that!

Sorry to ruin the daydream. My experience with a much younger/smaller boar is enough to keep me from thinking about the bacon on that monster even aside from the poor field care. I like bacon, just not enough to stomach boar bacon.

Not cut,with a boar that big,you would not even be able to hide the urine smell even if you turned him into pepperoni.That is why I do not eat pepperoni.

Now we're cooking with gas!

I can't be impressed by someone shooting a domestic duroc in their front yard. This is very douchey.

 

[singlesix]

Douchey part is bragging about it. Heck if I saw that thing close to my house I'd shoot it, that thing could do a lot damage.

We would shoot them in the pin,and drag them into the back yard.

I wonder if they call us bacon? Or bakon with a "k" perhaps?
