Caretaker found dead was attacked, killed by wild hogs in Anahuac

[FireInTheWire]

We hardly ever keep or clean them. Typically we drag them to an out of the way area and shoot coyotes off them. I know other pigs will eat them but I've never personally seen it only evidence of such. Only things I've seen eat a deceased pig is coyotes, badgers, opossum, vultures and bald eagles.

I'll add to your list- Bobcats, Red-tailed Hawks and Great horned owls.

My big concern about shooting hogs is how to get rid of them. Our place isn't big enough to just leave them lying around. We raise horses and have coral board fences. I think they discourage hogs but can't swear to it.

Gut shot... they'll run off to your neighbors place

Cocaine slows down bleeding?

Don't think it was coke. Some sort of anti-bleeding stuff? No clue.

Probably Colombian. I hear it's the best for blood clotting.

I never knew of bobcats as scavengers of carrion. I know skunks and possums will root through a dead hog .

We set up a trail cam on one big hog we shot and over a week lots of buzzards, ravens, crows, jays, an occasional red-tail hawk and some caracaras or Mexican eagles were all over it. Oddly enough, no 'yotes or other four legged predators.

Quite possibly corn starch. Corn starch is recommended for 1st aid for chicken bleeding. My rooster also carries a tourniquet.

Why you trying to start that up again?

Lol.

Most likely Celox Granules.

Why does he have a flannel sleeve growing out of his arse?

I imagine that it is being held there.

He'd just got back from the 1st aid class (which was held in Amarillo) & the flannel shirt, though necessary up in the panhandle, was too warm for home. He'd just taken the shirt off & thrown it when I took the picture.

Ah okay, makes sense now.

That answer is much better....
