Hogzilla!!




Hogzilla may have been headed for horror-movie heaven (or the next episode of Lost), but the massive swine that became an Internet sensation in 2004 may have been outdone, size wise, by this reportedly wild pig killed May 3 by Jamison Stone, age 11, and reported by the Associated Press on Wednesday.
From tip to tail, the newfound hog—dubbed "Monster Pig"—measures 9 feet, 4 inches (284 centimeters) and weighs in at 1,051 pounds (477 kilograms), according to Stone's father.
At a 150-acre fenced hunting range, Stone said, he shot the huge beast eight times with a revolver before tracking it with his father and guides for three hours. Finally, the boy shot the hog at point-blank range, killing the animal. (Really Sad)
While hunting by children is legal in Alabama, officials are investigating whether anyone had transported and released the live feral pig into the hunting preserve, which would violate state law.
