I dont believe that kid shot it. I be hit his dad did and its more news worthy to say the boy did it. I just really dont believe a 11yo kid can fire 8 shots from a 50cal 350grain pistol. I have $20 to say the kid couldnt hold onto it for one shot.


The pig and kill has been confirmed as real.

Too right that hog was grain fed in a pen, feral animals just dont get enough time to so massive.

Maybe Im wrong but are USA feral pigs like our feral pigs and have different characteristics to domestic pigs ?

Ive seen some mega pigs in the bush around here, they are totally different ( body shape, hams are generally very light in ferals & fat cover is very dominate in that pig ) to any domestic pig Ive had in a pen.

To many glory hunters who have forgotten the reason for hunting, its no good chasing magazine cover shots. Better off enjoying the sport for what it is, I reckon.

Cheers
James
