I thought that this was going to be a story about a man who killed a boar with his bare hands or some make shift weapon.
After opening this page, I discovered that he used a gun like a pussy. Poor boar never had a chance.

Hogzilla was almost 800 lbs. Hybrid wild boar/domestic pig.
One theory on its size was that it was getting into the high protein fish food at local fish farms.

Feeds his family. Living off the land. Kill or be killed. I agree with you two though. I don't believe in hunting for sport. Only for survival. I just think it amazing their is a beast that big roaming around the woods of North Carolina.

The majority of animals you encounter in the wild in the US would prefer to not have anything to do with humans. While wild pigs may try to avoid human contact, they'll attack if push comes to shove. Nursing females are probably more dangerous than the males. If one attacks, and you don't have the means to stop it, it will most likely kill you.

Please tell me you're not getting ready to make the argument that I can't comment on hunting unless I've done it before.

The huge boar had eluded members of the White Oak Ranch Hunting Club for years. It had been spotted repeatedly but never bagged.
“We have pictures of him going back to 2011,” Michael Mansell, president of the North Carolina club, told WNCT news.

Incidentally, I had already prepared a meme to respond in case you were making that argument.
