the pic looks photo shopped to me. I've seen ALOT of wild feral hogs , 4 up to 600lbs and several domestic that were in the 1000+lbs and none look anthing close to that big unless thats a realy small kid. Thank thing looks like a Bison !!

Not to be pesimistic but I want to see some official folks like a game warden or somthing with it on scales , one photo taken in the woods and only a hand full of people seeing it ? Come on , you know if somthing like that was shot in your town is would be on public display for a couple days.

With the pig finally dead in a creek bed on the 2,500-acre Lost Creek Plantation, a commercial hunting preserve in Delta, trees had to be cut down and a backhoe brought in to bring Jamison's prize out of the woods. [Quote]

The Hog was taken on a Hunting Preserve and the wieght has been corrected to 1060 pounds as they miss read the scale. The scale is graduated in 10 pound increaments and they first thought that the first notch above the 1050 was a 1 and they first reported 1051 pounds.....
