Ideation 8,216 Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 They are f*****g everywhere round here. You see them day and night, even just rooting up the road verge. Its fine/fun to run into a half grown, or little one. The big ones here are f*****g HUGE, and pack some punch, especially if you get between sow and young. Very much worth a mooch tho But you need the right dogs unless you want to bury yours. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rob190364 2,594 Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Shows what I know, I didn't think they were in this country any more. Are they only in the Southwest then or are they countrywide? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fresh earth 47 Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Heard are was sightings 20-30 miles north west of me in a public woodland park would need to see for myself first tbh though. Have heard about them being abundant down south though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iceman001979 1,316 Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Was on a programme called johnny's kingdom about x moor he was saying that loads got out off some where but he thought they where all caught again but must not got them all.The size off the male was huge take some dog bring him down Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ideation 8,216 Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 If you dropped a big one it'd take some shifting. They are dense as f**k. Pretty hands on as well, you got to be up for some pig leaping. An alaunt would probably be just the ticket but if you were going looking for the big ones i'd prob still suggest a chest guard. P.S i kinda got some pet ones by me And they scare the f**k out of me to be honest (I have to get pretty close to them) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
