big hog

I know I am new here, but have been watching for a while before joining. Wanted share an email I received today

The fellow in the pictures is BOB LANCASTER, He lives about 30 miles from
Houston, in a very rural community. He has 20 acres of land and on it, a few
cows and horses. Mostly it's pasture land that is fenced with woods surrounding
him.
He is neighbored by a larger cattle ranch.
His neighbor has complained for several years that wild hogs had been
raiding his cattle feeders and salt licks.
Last month he saw what he though was a cow in his pond and went to see if it was
stuck in the mud and would have to be pulled out. When he got close enough to
realize it was hog, the thing made a charge at him. He

had driven his truck down to the pond and carries a pistol in it (as any Texas
redneck would, and I say that with genuine affection). He got his handgun and
when it came at him again, he shot it twice and killed it.

Wild hogs in Texas usually run from 100-400 pounds with a 400 pounder being a
monster. Because this one had been feasting on grain for several years it had
grown to mammoth size. When Bob took it to the processor it weighed in at over
1100 pounds!
