    Huge wild boar shot by 11 year old in Alabama turned out to be a pen-raised porker.

    Damn!

    Even though Hogzilla & Monster Pig turned out to be fakes & frauds, I'm really starting to get an itch to go hunting. Sounds like boars are tough game, too.

    Poor Fred.

    Eating slop out of a trough one day, being chased down by a boy with a gun the next.

    It was a damn-big pig, that's for sure, but was a little over 200 lbs lighter than the half-ton it was reported to be, plus three feet shorter.
