Was hunting two weekends ago and had some strange looking ‘hogs’ come in. Noticed they walked very different and had a different build. First one that came in turned his head up at me and caught a .300 wm in the chest. DEVASTATING. What a great surprise as we’ve hunted this place over ten years and never seen them on our property.

Nice! I've seen them around Megargel and 1790 & 277, East of Seymour.

Very cool! I have only tried hunting them once down in Ft. Davis with no luck.
Archer County is within their historically known range. I have a 1959 copy of Hall & Kelson's Mammals of North America that shows type localities and documented records. I mention this because several years ago, a buddy of mine killed two in SW Wichita County and I was surprised that they came this far north. I thought it was a fluke and it sort of was given how things are today, but historically, they are known from the area.
