This thing is ridiculous, I wish I knew a backstory on it.

rbridges00 · 10-03-2008, 01:25 PM

Looks photo shopped to me.

wes122984 · 10-03-2008, 01:25 PM

wow

A&M 90 · 10-03-2008, 01:26 PM

Jurassic Park?

philafal · 10-03-2008, 01:27 PM

thats the most doctored pic I have ever seen..

txhunter83 · 10-03-2008, 01:30 PM

I dont see what you guys are seeing as far as photoshop evidence.

philafal · 10-03-2008, 01:32 PM

i didnt say photoshop.. look at the differences in focuses in the pic.. I think its angle and distance magic.... anyways... I am not an expert... just a baligerant opinion..

A pig like that wouldnt just make hunting news.. It would make national news... that things bigger than a cow!

jettech17 · 10-03-2008, 01:35 PM

naa...dorf on hogs

philafal · 10-03-2008, 01:36 PM

plus... one pic it has a tail and one it doesnt appear to..

philafal · 10-03-2008, 01:37 PM

those are 2 different Pigs!!! we have been bamboozled!

CastAndBlast · 10-03-2008, 01:41 PM

I would have to agree, the hog in the last picture looks different from the top two

JimN · 10-03-2008, 01:43 PM

that is a new one.

Looks like overseas as well. Look at the truck

CHUD · 10-03-2008, 01:43 PM

Looks fake. to me.

Matman · 10-03-2008, 01:47 PM

Has to be over seas. Looks like a big pig to me.

Extremebowman · 10-03-2008, 01:47 PM

Photoshop, you got me? But, the first two pics are obviously different pig than the third. Look at the torso hair on the different pigs. 1&2 look mangy and thin, ain't nothin thin on the razorback of the third pic.

bowhuntntxn · 10-03-2008, 01:47 PM

the terrain and foilage isnt the same either. maybe he is in giant pigvillia or something!!

The Crippler · 10-03-2008, 01:48 PM

looks real to me. from Croatia or Poland maybe?

philafal · 10-03-2008, 01:51 PM

the truck is a left side driver.. what makes the truck look like its overseas.. not saying its not just curious to what gives it away..

Split_Brow · 10-03-2008, 01:55 PM

they are all the same pig...not saying there is not some trick photography going on but the reason he is mangy looking is because he was drug and rubbed the hair off of that side...two different sides of the pig shown...

philafal · 10-03-2008, 01:56 PM

??? What about the tail?

rdwhunter · 10-03-2008, 01:56 PM

That just doesn't look right.

They cut it off to show ownership because its as big as a small elephant.

philafal · 10-03-2008, 02:03 PM

see I would think the pic of it by the truck by the road would be the after drag photo and thus no hair and the pic of it with hair would be in the field...

philafal · 10-03-2008, 02:04 PM

something smells fishy... or piggy... sorry lame joke

The Crippler · 10-03-2008, 02:05 PM

I think in the second pic his tail his hanging down along his left rear leg...no nasty comments please

philafal · 10-03-2008, 02:06 PM

ok.. yeah.. i guess it could be.. I see that

so.... this pig got owned!

txhunter83 · 10-03-2008, 02:15 PM

Well, they had to move the pig to take the pictures, and I am guessing they didnt just throw it in the back of the truck, they had to have drug it, which could explain the hair on THAT side of his body being gone.

JWHunt · 10-03-2008, 02:16 PM

photoshop....

Extremebowman · 10-03-2008, 02:17 PM

There is no way they are the same pigs - Look at the hair along the spine, look at the hair color, hair density, size of the rear quarters, general size - the first two pics are portly, the third is big but stout. The hairline on the snouts are different too.

The truck has the wheel on "our" side, but it is not a domestic vehicle, definitely overseas.

Snakelover · 10-03-2008, 02:19 PM

Color me skeptical. I have my doubts about this rabbit too.

I would have to venture a guess that that is photo-shopped.....and done really poorly at that.

If it's not, I want to meet the guy who was wearing the estimated size 36 EEEE Nikes who left this partial footprint.........ahhhhhhhhhh BUSTED!

I call BS too. Why doesn't the guy ever pose in front of the critter? Or use a gun or the appropriate weapon slung across the beast for scale?

Plus those dudes in the first pic have that "are we in trouble?" look.

MMMMMMBRAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

BpsDaddy · 10-03-2008, 03:02 PM

in the first pic it looks like one guy is holding the head up with one hand. In the second pic it looks like the head is just levitating on it's own. And in the third pic it looks like there is a fork of some sort under the jaw. If that thing was real... who ever is holding the head up with one hand in the first pic better be Super Man or the Hulk! I call B.S.!!!

BIG BONE · 10-03-2008, 03:11 PM

looks real

RobinHood · 10-03-2008, 03:25 PM

Yall guys are good.
Ever thought about becoming an investigator??

JHT · 10-03-2008, 03:26 PM

Wheres the blood?

Jen-Man · 10-03-2008, 03:30 PM

Real for sure......I got one bigger than that yesterday and I'm going to get one of those rabbits this evening...........

Wildman · 10-03-2008, 03:31 PM

Cool photo effects

woody wood · 10-03-2008, 03:39 PM

However big, however photoshopped, however staged

- that porker could have done some serious damage with those cutter when he was still kicking.

catfish · 10-03-2008, 03:43 PM

No one is going to pose with a dead animal along side a nature tour truck. That is the dumbest picture I have ever seen. If someone were to kill a hog that big it would be all over the news plus Cabelas and Bas Pro would be all over it also.

primative · 10-03-2008, 03:53 PM

There is no doubt that that is a big pig, but he is sitting waaaayyyyy behind it to make it look bigger. My guess is 350, maybe 400 pounds actual weight

The dumbest picture you have ever seen. Wow...

10-03-2008, 04:31 PM

It's called forced prespective, Hollywoor has been using it for years. When you place a image closer to the camera and use a slower shutter speed everything in the forground and background are in focus.

It's like the picture that SnakeLover posted... old camera trick.. All in all it's still a nice hog.. but not as big as it appears in the picture.

kellyg · 10-03-2008, 04:37 PM

I don't think it's nearly as big as Pigsquatch on 'My name is Earl'. JMO

jlptexashunter · 10-03-2008, 04:37 PM

The company is Nature Tours out of Turkey: http://www.naturetours.com.tr/nature_eng.html
I thought those "guides" looked like they were from one of the "stans" countries.

Check out the website, these pics are there.

Also look at the pics of the cutters. Good night they shoot some big ol' pigs.
