[QUOTE="kiwi49, post: 1927463, member: 82514"] Here in New Zealand, pig hunting is done using dogs, with GPS collars and protective vests. The GPS sends the position of the dogs and where they've bailed a pig. You've got to be pretty fit (not me), because those tusks can make a mess of a dog and run to where the pig is bailed. Knife in most cases, with a short barrelled lever rifle in 357 Mag, 44/40 or 44 Mag as backup. Can be very exciting when the pig identifies the human as the greater threat, ignores the dogs and charges. Hunters get injured by tusk slash quite often - especially if it's a big fella. In Australia, they grow up to 250kg (600lbs) in the outback. These pigs eat whole cows that have died, due to starvation during a drought. [/QUOTE]
