up to 250 lbs?
that is a HUGE WILD HOG.
do you mean 250 with guts still in him?
or 250 dressed out?
a 250 pound hog, after its gutted.. is a huge boar.
when we look at magazines with pictures of Hunters... and they put weights on them like 200lbs 250lbs 170lbs..
and almost all the time, the hogs in the pictures are maybe HALF that weight. (once dressed)
i have never weighed the Guts, but i would guess on a full size boar, all the insides might weight 60lbs.
I always weigh mine after they have been gutted and an MY average Boar is 140lbs but they look much bigger.
here is an example... this Big boar.. Field Dressed out.. 170 but he looks Much Heavier than that.
i would guess him at 250 With all the Guts still in him.
i see people online and magazines with hogs Smaller than this one, stating 200 - 300 pounds.

PS.. i think im going to also post this as a new post for peoples opinions.
i have always wondered about this.
