A guy I know through hog hunting posted this on Facebook. He is in Texas.

That is a cool story.

I bet he sowed some seed along that path!

And i thought when i killed a hog a our deer club 3 miles away that i had pics of at the house i had done something...

Did he say what length of time it took to travel that far?

That is crazy

The guy that killed it said they told him it was released 3 years ago

Bayed up...Hogwild helped me track down one that had been ear tagged and killed where I used to hunt in Leroy. He had made about 5 river miles.

That's cool

When I was a kid two of the places we hunted a lot were about 45 miles apart, one on the mountain and one east of the mountain, a big old spotted sow with no left ear was seen a few times at both places before she was killed.

In Germany, I know they taught us that a herd could/would roam up to 30 KM in a single night. As stated elsewhere in this forum - Russian variety, not the ferals here.

Dang , he has been spreading his love

Neat in the information received, but

Just think.....

If the hog had been killed 600 miles ago when tagged........



there would be a lot less hogs.

Maybe he was neutered, but he doesn't appear to be in the picture.

Not really since he was a boar. If it was a sow it would have made a difference but since it’s a boar more than likely any sows he bred would have been bred by a different boar anyway.

There are a lot of variables involved here. It mostly depends of food sources and the location of other pigs as to how far they travel. I have been seeing this same boar on out lease for the last 3 years. Most of the time during bow season and out of range. My neighbor caught him in a trap and didn't have his gun on him. When he came back he had busted the side out on the trap and was gone. I have seen the same sounder of hogs several times this year have taken a few out of it but they dont go far. I would bet this is an exception and not the norm. My 02.

Just goes to show how far a male will go for some lovin
