So imagine our shock when we learned that feral hogs, when they breed with domestic hogs, can get huge. Like, massive.
This is what happens when domestic hogs interbreed with wild hogs . The get larger each generation. pic.twitter.com/Wf8zohDT5b

And we've written about how mean and nasty they can be in the past. Like the family in Texas who got attacked in their own home, and the possible invasion of wild 'super pigs' that threaten to invade from the Canadian side of the border.
Every day, the '30-50 feral hogs' guy is vindicated.
Legit question for rural Americans - How do I kill the 30-50 feral hogs that run into my yard within 3-5 mins while my small kids play?

And for a hog so massive it gets moved with a bulldozer, you're gonna need the big guns.
Wild hogs in the U.S. all started as domestic hogs. Hogs go feral in 1 or 2 generations in the wild complete with bore growing tusks

Yikes.
AYO WHAT?! 👀

Yeah, that's what we said.
That's why you need ar15s and helicopters for hunting

We call this a good start.
That’s going to take one really big smoker.

And make lots of yummy barbecue.
Everybody bring a dish to pass.

This, right here. I'm not positive an AR15 would do the job on one of these big boys, it may not be enough.

It might not be enough.

You can make a good case for it. Look at the size of that thing.

Major vindication.
We must kill the 1500 lb hogs, so our children don't have to fight the 15,000 lb hogs. https://t.co/1TT1Kz9Asi

And the damage they'd do to everything and everyone on your property.

If you don't get the acorn reference, a recap is here.

They have no idea. None, whatsoever.
I wonder if we’re doing natural selection by killing off the slower weaker hogs and creating bigger faster more bullet resistant hogs https://t.co/loozdoNLhf

To quote Ian Malcolm: 'Life finds a way.'
the year is 2124 and wild 20,000 lbs hogs are roaming the earth. humanity is on the edge of collapse. the age of men is over. the time of the giant hog has come. https://t.co/n9qcPp0PE6

We would pay good money to watch this.
some of the most nightmarish s**t you can ever read is the diaries and recollections of civil war soldiers writing about how, after a battle, battlefield wounded who were left there, begged to either be saved or killed, because hogs would come in and scavenge the battlefield. https://t.co/yAm4AI5zWn

Pretty much.
And, inevitably, we'll get people on the Left (*cough* PETA *cough*) complaining about killing these beasts. But they'll cause havoc and cause serious injuries and deaths if left unchecked.
