Oh, and Mystery Man- If they shot this thing on a game farm, the farm probably had a backhoe or something they could strap it to, I’d imagine…

If I had this thing, I’d mount it AND make sausage, as they seem to be doing. Might as well make the most of it. Of course, a lot of people claim taxidermied specimens can be stretched, so I imagine the debate will continue.

And yeah, Remus has a point about sausage. Probably the best use for it. I’ve been to 2 pig roasts, and they were both big bull males, and boy was that meat terrible! But if they’d've ground them up, mixed in a few veggies and spices and slipped them into an intestinal lining, they’d probably have made some mighty fine links…

We have escaped boar in this country and some crossbreed with domestic pigs.

I can’t wait until they grow this big and scare the townies.

One thing I wonder about is if they shot this thing out in the woods, how did they haul this huge thing back?

This is not a message center. This is not a forum. This is a topic-specific comment location.

Topics on general meat-eating, hunting and non-hunting, guns vs non-guns, and other non-Hogzilla II subjects will be deleted.

Thank you for your cooperation.

They made it into sausage precisely because that is the best way to make unpalatable meat edible.

Do YOU know what is in your commercial sausage?

Hahahahaha!

Anybody think it’s suspicious that the hog has (allegedly) been cut up and made into sausage, effectively destroying the evidence?

If I had a hog this size that made international news, I’d stuff it and charge admission at fairs; you could make a fortune. Turning it into sauage seems very suspicious to me.

Ben, if you read the kid’s web site you will see it says ” Video Coming Soon-Hog is being mounted-Many witnesses-Sausage is all gone” So maybe we will see a mounted head at least.

My ? is this. I heard that hog’s this size aren’t good eating. Is this true? Does anybody know if this is true? Cuz it sure would be a waste to kill this animal if you couldn’t even eat the meat it produced. Unless of course it was terrorizing your farm or something like that.
