Does this photo look REAL to you or is it a CLEAR hoax?
By now you should have seen the above picture of "Monster Hog", a hog larger than "Hogzilla" which another hunter supposedly killed in Georgia in 2004. "Monster Hog" was allegedly killed by 11 year old Jamison Stone from Delta, Alabama on May 3, 2007. The Wild Hog is claimed to weigh a staggering 1,051 pounds and measured 9-feet-4 from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail!
Aside from the mass hysteria surrounding the fact that all of a sudden we have all these suspicious wild hogs that are larger than life roaming around undetected for decades -- would it not take that long for something to grow this BIG? -- does "Monster Hog's" picture not look "doctored" to you? Tell us what you think. Weird!
Update: Hog may have been a real domesticated one after all, and NOT wild as claimed.

That kid really brought home the bacon.
I can't imagine a wild boar that big. Can you imagine meeting that monster in the woods by accident?
These hawgs are possible when you have a wild sow somehow crossbreed with one of the Super-Huge domesticated breeds. "Hogzilla" was found to be one of these hybrids. Somehow, the super growth ability of the large domesticated (created) breeds goes haywire when introduced into a wild species. I'd explain the genetics, but I can't find the article that explained it to me.lol.
Hey, thank you for the explanation. That is quite interesting. I wasn't aware. I do appreciate the post. Interesting.
UPDATE!
Hog was not feral.
It seems that the kid and his dad were led to believe that he was a wild hog as they were hunting him.
He was, in actuality, raised on a nearby farm. The farmers said that
if he wasn't fed, though, that he could become violent.
All I know is that the sucker could fill a person's freezer with many yummy "'Husker" pork chops!
