Blastin' and Castin' in the Texas Outdoors

We havea lot of good times, the road was a drug when we started way back, our wheels rolled on steady, now its forgetting the race to find an open space and leaving that city far behind We’ll be up in the morning before the sun, since anything beats working on the job and everyone knows the early worm gets the fish. The world is your oyster, let the high times carry the low, walk where the sun is shining, lay your burdens down and think to yourself that it sure feels good feeling good again.

What is the story with all those pigs. Did you catch them in the trap?

The big one sure looks like a domestic porker.

Hog Trapping in Brazos County Texas

I was still in the stone age back then so I had to wait until the film got developed. Now that my wife has a digital there won't be such a long delay on the photographic evidence.

Don't let the color fool you, there were alot of indicators that the sow was less than domesticated
Differences between domestic and feral pigs:
much smaller hams (back legs)
long snout
long coarse hairs
ears that stand erect not droop
lower length to height ratio
males have broad, front shoulders but not sows
