Deputies in Florida are searching for the owner of a 600-pound hog that was found roaming around.
Local news organizations report that Alachua County deputies found the domestic hog Sunday after getting reports of the animal running at large.
Deputies caught the hog using a rope and took it to the Alachua County Sheriff's Office Livestock Impound.
The sheriff's office said in a news release that the 600-pound Hampshire hog appeared to be in good health.
The animal will be put up for auction if its owner doesn't claim it.
Anyone with additional information is asked to contact officials.

Why was he roaming the streets? He should have been at home feeding his hog.

I suggest that he become a mascot! After all, "Finders Keepers", right! If nobody claims him..., just don't NAME HIM! Just hold a Charity BBQ at which he will be the star!

I will resist the temptation to relate this thread in any way to the current electoral contest. ;-)

I live in the area and the evening news says that the hog owner has reclaimed the hog and all is well.
The owner said that the hog sometimes wanders but soon returns home, but this time he wandered too far.

The day my best friend and I graduated from high school, a huge pink hog trotted across the 4-lane CITY street we were driving down. We wondered what that might portend, then we laughed our a$ses off...

Gotta tell the razorback story.
Bill walks up the Marine guard with a piglet under each arm and says,
“I got this one heah for Chelsea and the othah one for Hillary.”
“Nice trade sir.”
