Still not convincing me to be scared of the big bad pig. Some rare cases maybe they are dangerous, still running down and kicking the cr@p out of every piglet I can. Hopefully while momma watches, but if I had to bet she'll be in the next county not worrying about ol slow pork getting punted by a redneck.

Javalinas are a little different. A little.

Javis are a lot different I think. Call in a few from the ground using distress calls. They show up bristled up and wanting a fight. I won't be jumping on any baby javis.

You're confused again.

"Cite one example..."

Several examples are cited.

"No proof, bunch of scaredy cats, you're dumb I'm smart."

What a tool.

I saw coyotes snatch a piglet once while bowhunting near Hillsboro. Two sows and piglets were headed towards my feeder when three coyotes came flying out of a creek bed. The coyotes snatched one of the smaller piglets and then the fight was one. Momma sow bum rushed the coyotes and rolled one of them. The coyote she hit got up limping and running off. The whole scene lasted a few seconds, but it was an awesome sight to see. The coyotes got the piglet, but one them paid a big price. I failed to mention the volume of the hogs squeals and snorts was off the charts loud. I was ticked off at first because my hunt was ruined, but then I realized you don't see things like this very often.

I concede that, by scouring sites like one called "Outdoor Oddities" you found 2 or 3 apparent examples of hogs attacking some folks. (Assuming you believe it happened that way. Frankly, I don't. But that's what they said.)

Here's the larger point: if you are scared of hogs and view them as vicious when unprovoked/unwounded - it can only be because you have little to no experience with them. I have kicked plenty of pigs just for fun (after Momma was dead/ran off) and will do so till I die if the mood strikes.

Say what you will, bash, whatever.

That's a straight up "city-boy" mentality - closer to what a PETA snowflake would believe than anyone with even a modicum of real experience living with hogs.
So is asking if coyotes will eat pigs. I started out very low key, but having been "called out" I will say this: I can't believe that question would even be asked with a straight face by someone on a hunting forum.

That's because, regardless of the issue, unless it fits your beliefs; it can't be true.

At least my belief here is based on 53 years growing up around/hunting/trapping/killing hogs in east TX. Instead of some TV/website stoked "fear" stories to get the city boys to think they have really done something when they kill a hog.

Sells a lot of ARs though.

These vicious monsters off my place were loaded in a trailer and sold for city folks to hunt. Done every day probably over 100x a day in TX. Can't believe all us crazy folks have survived. Maybe I can walk to the stand without being attacked now.

Nobody is claiming every wild pig is a blood thirsty monster. You are claiming that wild pigs do not attack unprovoked.
It can be easily proved that, be it rare, wild pigs will attack unprovoked.

Back when I was a young fellow in Odessa we lived in the country, got my first horse when I was 4yo. One day the recorded temp was 103 degrees and while out checking fence I saw a coyote chasing a rabbit and they were both walking.. .

Check the documented history of Gainesville TX.

Why ? It is apparent you haven't checked the matter enough or you would know you are incorrect.

I hunt all the time at night, have seen many times a yote is trying to get a pig Leyte. Sows and boars protect the piglettes. Usually the piglettes get close to mom when one is hanging around
