Lots of debate here about this one, but growing consensus seems to be that it's not a hoax.

That looks like the one that was killed in Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama, Georgia and Florida.

That’s a reasonable size for a pig. They’re not all petite like Arnold.

Just what we need...giant carnivorous pigs. If these things take hold, their gonna take the lion’s place as king of the jungle.

For some reason, the United States budget comes to mind...

I don’t know why anyone would think it a hoax. I’ve seen boars as big or bigger on Iowa farms. Shoot, the big boars at the Iowa State Fair every year are bigger.

Pigs will always eat dead animals, given the chance. Shoot, they’ll eat each other, given the chance.

Shoot, theyll eat each other, given the chance.Although I think this one might have been even more appropriate.

Boar meat is really rank.Proper handling and then sausage with plenty of sage, black and red pepper, thyme, and a few more ingredients that remain proprietary..... That's how you deal with dead pigs.
I lived through last winter on wild pig and the garden. Please to not disparage.

Pigs arent carnivores.Actually they are. They'll eat other pigs if they're hungry enough.

Pigs arent carnivores. Purchase a clue, tenderfoot. Pigz is omnivores, just like humans.
