Giant Feral Pig Eats Farmers Dogs

May 3rd 2009 04:05
swine flu pandemic Australia environment feral pig
Never mind the swine flu pandemic, this gigantic feral pig could have been capable of eating a person, given the opportunity. The farmer knew there was a big predator on the loose when, one by one, his dogs started disappearing. The remaining dogs were afraid to go out at night because they knew there was a giant feral pig hunting in the area, 300km south of Katherine.

Feral pigs are adaptable and indiscriminate, eating a wide variety of plant matter as well as carrion and any animal they can subdue. They can dig and swim, and forage by day or night, causing significant environmental damage. This beast was killed by a 375 H&H. It was 3 metres long and weighed almost half a tonne! It could not be lifted onto the Land Cruiser and had to be dragged into a burial pit.

Glen, that is a huge dog eating swine.

A 375 H&H is a lot of weapon, I used to hunt pigs in TX with a .22 cal and a .44 desert eagle.

But, one look at that fella and I'd switch over to a rocket launcher and turn it into instant sausage with hair balls.

Thats what I'm talking about!

375 could almost be considered a little overkill for a pig...except for this case in point. What a monster.

You gotta be fucking kidding! (to quote from John Carptner's The Thing)
That beast almost doesn't look real. I had no idea swine could get that monstrous! Poor bloody dogs! That is nightmarish stuff indeed!

No photoshop. Look at the rear suspension on the Land Cruiser. The wheel is almost touching the chassis.
