Crocodile Dundee country.

This Feral Pig was shot by a friend of mine on the Cape York Peninsula North East Australia. It is the biggest I have seen. You can gauge the size compared to the truck and the weight by the way it is weighing down the rear
end.
Not fun to meet on a dark night.

bugger, i'm thinking he will have to build a new spit to fit that.

Wow, that thing is a beast! What did he take it with?

 

[Steve Kulper]

a cannon lol

 

[JackW]

If he is a friend of Pete's I would say more liekly a Ricoh!

Naaah, that thing'd have worms the size of carpet snakes. You'd have to be pretty good to stop it with a .22!

 

[Pete McCluskey.]

Lee Enfield .303 100gr bullet. You would be right about the worms.

What a beast!!

Egads, Pete!!--we have feral hogs here in Texas, where everything is suppose to be bigger, but that sucker sure beats anything I've seen here by far.

One of the buggers ran across the road in front of my car at night--it's shoulder was as high as the top of the fenders on my old Ford Crown Victoria. That was scary enough (it looked solid enough to have made good use of the crumple zones should I have hit it).

I'm glad it was him and not me!

Why did the pig cross the road ?

Not sure, but its seems to have been a seriously bad move !!

 

[Mark Worthington]

When I lived in Texas we hunted hogs with a .357 magnum or a .44 magnum revolver. Good fun!

 

[Peter Delaney]

The pic of the saltwater croc was taken in the Northern Territory - the only State in OZ with unrestricted speed limits. Just imagine coming over a rise at speed in the 40 & seeing this bugger & his breakfast - left, right, or just straight underneath ?

Not that we have many dangerous reptiles here in Oz !!

 

[Steve Kulper]

Is that you MR D eating the pig? You could have at least used a knife and fork.

Steve

 

[Peter Delaney]

No, not me mate, I wasn't there - must have been my twin brother !! With his breath, he had instant crackling available for brekky !

 

[Steve Kulper]

Ive never seen a croc stand up like that he looks so tall, what chance would you have against that in the water or on land.

 

[roaldin]

Especially when you realise it's the same pig!

Tim.

 

[Neal]

Especially when you realise it's the same pig!

Too funny!

 

[Bill Bayard]

Pete,

What did that pig weigh? That's a LOT of bacon!



Bill

 

[Pete McCluskey.]

No Idea Bill, but either the truck has crook springs or the pig is bloody heavy.
