[quote] A wild boar, known throughout America as Hogzilla and once thought to be a myth, has finally been killed. The giant beast was more than eight foot long and weighed more than 36 stone when it was shot by veteran hunter Jett Webb. However experts believe the boar could weigh much more after the animal broke the scales when it was being assessed. "It was very surreal,” said Jett. “It was a shock. It was very humbling to say the least, when you walk up on a beast that big and you say, ‘Oh my gosh’. “I had no idea that there could be something that big running around the woods of Eastern North Carolina." Jett then revealed the secret to his hunting success. “The sweet-tasting corn and a night-hunting light was too much for this oversized, heap of pork chops,” he added A month ago Jett spotted the wild beast roaming and quickly realised that it was the same hog other members of the White Oak Ranch Hunting Club had been trying to capture for years. He then hunted the animal for more than a month. “We have pictures of him going back to 2011,” Michael Mansell, president of the North Carolina club said. “He was a hard one to get on the ground for he moved around a great deal. “These hogs are smart; we stay scent free, watch the wind and hunt from elevated stands. “His head and shoulders were still on the skinning shed floor when we tried to weigh him. “He was that big the scales couldn’t handle him.” Jett managed to shoot the hog in the Indian Woods area of Bertie County from an elevated tree stand with a powerful AR-10 rifle from less than 100 yards away at the end of last month. He now plans to make enough sausages with the meat to be able to feed his family for the rest of the year. In North Carolina, feral pigs can be hunted all year round. Wild boar however are a non-native species and considered a threat to the environment and agricultural operations in the state.[/quote]How does it feel to be a wussy Non-North Carolinian who will never be able to kill a pig the size of a bear?
