I blew it up too and there is no way you can make out what it is. The picture is just not good enough. I still say two coyotes.

From the picture provided I would still have guessed it is a Black Coyote because of the black tail looking fluffy/fuzzy?Since You say is definetly a Hog I'd be doing some serious Hog Hunting!


I noticed You have a Moultrie Camera...can You set it on Video to catch it moving/walking by again?

Did a little exposure adjusting and it appears to be a black coyote. (As others noted...the bushy tail is the tell-tale.)

What you probably have is a breeding pair.

Where is this bushy tail in which you all speak of? It's not sticking straight out, it's not down between its legs, and it's not to either side of the animal. I do not see it. If that is a coyote it dwarfs the other one and has the thickest legs, rump, and back of any yote I've ever seen.

Well, I'm not sure what other folks see when they look at their monitor. Monitor size and resolution may be a consideration.

With that said, what I see is the rump illuminated by the flash with what appears to me to be a large, bushy tail in the typical coyote "low mode".

Whatever it is...it's a cool photo.

I am going with the other people and saying coyote for a few reasons:
1. Compairing the size of the pig/coyote to the other coyote, the legs look too long to be a pig.
2. The coyote is not even looking at the the other animal, if it was a pig i think the coyote would be keeping its eyes on it.
3. Im sorry to say, i still don't see a curly tail on it.
(This is my opinion and my reasons for it)
