Default Looks like it was real

National Goegraphic Magazine has checked out Hogzilla, and it's no joke. Here's a link.

it was real, but not what they claimed it was....

"They also noted the super swine didn't quite live up to the 1,000-pound, 12-foot hype generated when Hogzilla was caught on a farm last summer and photographed hanging from a backhoe.

Donning biohazard suits to exhume the behemoth's smelly remains, the experts estimated Hogzilla was probably only 7 1/2 to 8 feet long, and weighed about 800 pounds. The confirmation came in a documentary aired Sunday night on the National Geographic Channel; it will be rebroadcast Wednesday and Saturday"

man i don't care what the story was, his head woulda been on my wall for sure!

i read this awhile back on another forum. people claim that it was pen raised.

i didn't read the article and thought it was when he was talking about how big it was. however when i just read it i realised they had proved it. opps
