You have a big hog hanging from a tree in your front yard.

So, are those things like sharks, just keep growing as long as they live? One wonders what the age of the hog is.

"So, are those things like sharks, just keep growing as long as they live? One wonders what the age of the hog is."

I saw the National Geographic program on the original Hogzilla. Apparently our domesticated hogs will go feral quickly and grow huge tusks after release from captivity. They believe Hogzilla was a cross between a wild boar and a previously domesticated hog.

I called animal control one time when I had a (bbiiigggg) pig come wandering down my driveway and start rooting around in my flowers. It was a surprise because even though I live way out in the middle of nowhere, we have no pig farmers around.

The first question was "what color is it?" (pink)
They didn't show up for about 4 hours any way.
Maybe next time I will just have myself a load of fresh pork.

Apparently spelled "piglit" by Piglet.

I once read a news article about feral pigs that hung around a garbage dump somewhere in Florida. Apparently they liked playing soccer.
