CJNAZ Report post Posted December 3, 2018 Big fat piggy in the 1st pic then a smaller one in the 2nd. Cannot figure out what the heck is in the picture though. Looks like the little piggy is carrying a rabbit in its mouth. Ever seen something like this before? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JSR Report post Posted December 3, 2018 Maybe its just the pics, but Those don’t look like javelina. No collar. Long hair. Looks like feral pigs. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From what I've read javelina, which are not true pigs, only have two teats. And you never see them on a live one 'cause they're up and back (like where a coues doe's are). Sow pigs can have 10 or more 'cause they can have lots of piglets. I agree with the posters who said it's a feral pig. (And what looks like a rabbit in the second one's mouth could just be a piglet that was in a weird position when the shutter on the camera went off. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CJNAZ Report post Posted December 4, 2018 So if the majority of us think they’re feral then I have captured them on a game cam. This camera was nowhere near the West side of the state where I have heard they might be at. This camera is just South of Superior. That’s why I figured they were Javi. Too bad I didn’t have a better camera. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CatfishKev Report post Posted December 4, 2018 Yup, look like hogs. However if they had been javi, they are opportunist so it wouldnt be real weird to see one with a dead animal in its mouth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CJNAZ Report post Posted December 4, 2018 And one know of health concerns with consuming the meat from these hogs? If I come across them I will certainly take as many as I can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I come across them I will certainly take as many as I can. Use the same precautions as eating bear. Cook to 160 degrees. The ones I have ate have been really good. There used to be a fenced hog operation near Reddington. Would not be a stretch for them to come up the San Pedro / Gila river. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
