True but feral hogs [or even farm hogs, for that matter] can be dangerous and unpredictable.

They can run a lot faster than you think.
[ping some Texans or other southerners to this thread and ask them]....LOL!

As a kid, I was allowed the run of the farm...-except- for the hog pens.
The adults fed them and we kids were not allowed to even hang over the fence to look at them lest we fall in.

Hogs can be funny critters.....

Ok, i'll take youre word for it. Still a shame it was buried. Could be put in preservatives, if you got a 2.5 meter high bottle.

Funny. When I was a kid, it was my job to feed/water the pigs. I was in the pen with them a lot. Had to really keep my eye on a couple of the sows though, though. They'd tag team me: one would get my attention while the other one would sneek up behind me and bite me on the butt. I'd turn to smack that one on the nose, and the other one would bite me on the butt. They thought it was great fun.
