My neighbor was telling me a story about how his friend shot a 500lb feral pig that was charging at him. His story went like this, he was walking to his blind and heard some noises behind him, he turns around and sees this huge pig charging at him so he had to shoot it 3 times in the head before it died. Now I never saw this pig but i dont think i believe him on the 500 lb part of it lol. This was in Roscommon county by the way.

How many people have seen/shot feral pigs in Michigan and if so what county?

Feral pigs have been recognized and are in the hunting rule book. As for 500 lber, I think it would have made the news.

I haven't seen any but they are running around up there. Thats is a huge pig i heard there around 250 but that may not be true

I'm sure while it was charging it looked even bigger than 500 lbs.

well 500lbs isnt that unbelievable , I did just go on a russin boar hunt and downed a 290lb boar and saw pics of bigger then that .

Last year there were 5 or 6 hogs spotted in the Omer area along the river. They are in Michigan for sure but I don't believe a 500lb story.

my buddy shot a russian boar opening day of rifle i mecosta county and i think it weighed about 350 and he was in the paper for it, grand rapids press about 3 weeks ago because it is the biggest pig shot in michigan on record, so i dont know about 500 pounds, i've heard of them but not in MI

I heard about the 350 in Mecosta county and a few other smaller ones but not a whole bunch were killed from what I have heard but either were many deer! I would love to see one!!!

Wow 500lb!! Thats a lot of pork!! IfI took one that size I would for sure be bragging about it. I'm sure it was big but Iwould have to see it to beleive it. Anyway, isn't all you need to shoot one is a deer tag or some kind of hunting tag?

does anyone know all the regualtions for boar hunting, like what times of the year can you hunt them b/c i found a herd in newaygo and one guy already shot 2 and i want to go out and hunt them but dont know any regulations
