11-year-old Alabama boy Jamison Stone used a Smith & Wesson customized .50 caliber revolver to kill a wild Feral hog that just may be the biggest pig ever found.
The monster hog weighed a 1,051 pounds and measured 10-feet-7 from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail.
Jamison shot the huge animal eight times with the pistol and chased it for three hours through hilly woods before finishing it off with a point-blank shot.
With the pig finally dead in a creek bed on the 2,500-acre Lost Creek Plantation, a commercial hunting preserve in Delta, trees had to be cut down and a backhoe brought in to bring Jamison's prize out of the woods. Link to Monsterpig | Fox
Update: The biggest monster pig was not a wild hog as claimed earlier by some medias, but a fed hog once had been raised on an Alabama farm and was sold to the Lost Creek Plantation just four days before it was shot. From Guardian
Phil Blissitt told The Anniston Star in a story Friday that he bought the 6-week-old pig in December 2004 as a Christmas gift for his wife, Rhonda, and that they sold it after deciding to get rid of all the pigs at their farm.
``I just wanted the truth to be told. That wasn't a wild pig,'' Rhonda Blissitt said.
