490 pounds. Looks bigger though. He use a 60 pound bow and shot it between the shoulder and the plate. He said the arrow took a main artery off the heart. It went 100 yards before dropping.

Wow, are you sure that is not a grizzly bear dressed up in a pig's suit????

Man oh man what a monster! I don't know as I could hunt something like that from the ground without soiling myself when they were close enough to kill. It is kind of scarey when you think you could go from homosapian to boar dung overnight.

a quote from their site:

Our Russians are a delicious to eat.
They are raised on great northern plains of Canada (eating hay and barley during the summer months & corn in the winter) as a specialty meat for the Asian population on the Western sea board of the North American Continent (Seattle, Port Angeles, Vancouver, Victoria, etc.) Bear Mountain Boars are a delicacy.

We take the Big Boars with Bad Attitudes for Bear Mountain. The Boars are contained with in a "Grid Iron" where they are the "Alpha" Beast. They become territorial and are forever battling for supremacy. Enter their "play ground" and see who really is the Top Predator!!!
