411 pound Feral Hog caught in San Antonio.

No armour on those dogs

Not all of em use it.
I know I damn sure would. I'd imagine it has to do with how much they paid for the dog.
A good Dogo Argentino will run you thousands of dollars.

Black mouth cur and plott hounds are awesome to hunt with to. As far as them getting chewed up, I have never really seen that happen. But I have seen where 5 dogs finally get on the hog and then they just go flying because the big just tosses them. I have seen a dog get its guts cut open by a bear one time. Tough ass doc to. He was lost and found a day later walking into town. He strolled along with some of his guts poking out of a three inch gash.

I hear Mexico paid for it

How can you hear anything with your head up CNN's ass?

Mike, don't you know? That is the BEST way for their fans to listen to CNN, because they only TALK out of their ass!

Feral hogs are a nuisance in many parts of America. They destroy crops and land. Oh and they have been know to attack people.

I see them all the time down here in Florida when I'm trail riding. Not nice animals and very destructive.

Agree...very destructive and not native.

These huge destructive hogs are spreading. Soon they will be all over the lower 48. Time to declare a bounty on these big piggies and put those AR-15s to good use.
How 3 guys and 3 dogs caught this 411-pound feral hog that infiltrated a San Antonio golf course

Why the hell did they go to all the trouble to capture it?
Shoot the MF!!!

And yet wild hogs were barely more than a curiosity in the Lone Star State until the 1980s. It’s only since then that the population has exploded, and not entirely because of the animals’ intelligence, adaptability and fertility. Hunters found them challenging prey, so wild hog populations were nurtured on ranches that sold hunting leases; some captured hogs were released in other parts of the state. Game ranchers set out feed to attract deer, but wild hogs pilfered it, growing more fecund. Finally, improved animal husbandry reduced disease among domestic pigs, thereby reducing the incidence among wild hogs.
