• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

They're faster than you think stiz, especially wild boars, they are not as fat as domestic pigs, but muscular and mean as a snake.

Speaking of which, how many of you have ever seen a snake in a hog sty? :d

We have bores here in Arizona in the deserts. I dont know if they are Havalina's, but they are mean looking. Bristly hair, huge bottom fang teeth, tall rounded spine, but not really fat, more of a rounded 'shape'.

We had a family of them on the former Chrysler test track that lived in the washes. We had some good test tracks for the off road vehicles that could drive through those washes (same ones every day), and at dawn, there they would be. We would have to drive slow till they would finally remember to go sideways and run out the top edge of the washes instead of keep running down it, lol.. (huge trenches, that your truck fit way down inside of.. ).

They were always 'angry' that you were coming. I think, if you had one of those 'universal translators' from Star Trek, they would be saying alot of 'french words'. I dont think they had a big fear of cars... More like, 'if they are tasty, I am turning around to bite it' type of mentality.

Cazzie,....there's a painting done by the Missouri regionalist painter Thomas Hart Benton. I don't remember the title of the painting but it shows a large hog chomping down on this hapless rattlesnake. It was in my high school history book. I stared at it dumbly wondering..."can that be true? A pig actually biting a snake in half..." Yep,...more than true.
