And you thought they only existed in the MM.

WOOT! (or should I say, OINK!)

We grow 'em BIG down here!

The kid shot the monster with a pistol, chased it for a couple hours, then used point-blank shot to take it down.

Kid clearly has levels in ranger, if you ask me.

I smell BACON!






Bacon, bacon, bacon!

I read it at first as "Dire Boars LOSE in Alabama".

Turns out, I was right the first time.

Kind of sad that a boar that large has to be killed for "sport" by a kid. Really. That is an ignominious and pointless way to die.

Man, that is one big pig.

Ya, a .50 caliber pistol. Obviously a powergamer.

I dunno.. 700 pounds of sausage is anything but ignominious!

Sausage? This is a whole hog roast ready to happen! Invite your friends! Invite your town! Heck, invite the whole county! Plenty to go around.

I wonder how many HD this thing had...

I'm guessing that kid's going up a level.

Indeed. It's not like they just tossed the whole carcass into a landfill! It's being turned into food. If anything, the piggy had more of a chance than a cow on a farm.
