I know here in North Florida wild pigs are an invasive species (not native), I'm assuming the same goes for 'Bama.
Not even a wild boar. No tusks. Ferrel domestic pig.

Turns out it's somebody's ex-pet that they sold for hunting purposes. I don't know what's funnier, the fact that it took 3 hours for that little fat bastard to chase down a farm pig with a .50 caliber revolver, or the fact that the dad is still claiming the pig was feral even though it had been in the wild for a grand total of FOUR DAYS.

P.S. The pig's name was Fred. RIP Fred.

ok well now THATS just wrong. i still negates the nature's miracle thingola, but those type of "arranged" trophy hunts are getting more popular and that **** makes me sick, its not even hunting, its target practice with living things.
reminds me of how people hunt lions, they sedate them, then they get the hunter to creep up on it will its tranquilized (not completely tranquilized, just enough to keep it awake yet very vulnerable) and the guy shoots it from like 5 feet away, that ***** crap. i had a near fist fight with a customer who does that ****, goes shooting "arranged" baboons and ****. ******* insult to hunters.
just read the main website, the dad wrote up a long story about "his side" guy seems honest.
and to clarify, i don';t hold it against the kid and his dad, i more or less hold it against the people running the "hunting farm", hunting and farm shouldnt be combined hunt wild stuff, stuff that wasnt imported or raised and bred by humans.
