Same Pig?

I'm thinking no. I'm also thinking the pig population here is about to blow. Photos are 3 min apart.

One has a thicker hind quarter than the other and looks to me like one is a sow and one is a boar

^^^^^

Huh?

You must be seeing something I'm not seeing. (No Testicles, No penile sheath that I can see). Barr hog would not have testicles, but would still have the other. No pronounced whetters or cutters, not a Boar Hog.

Looks like the same Sow to me.

I think you are correct. Easier to see now that I’m not on my cell phone.

It looks like the same sow to me in both pics. I agree that it looks like your hog population is about to expand too.

Next time I'll post the whole vids... I did a double take because one was darker on vid than the other and it didnt seem to be an artifact. The one on the left has burrs (cockle, goose, or otherwise) on the end of her tail and the one on the right has a more pronounced mohawk. That's why I'm thinking different. Again, pics are like 3 min apart.

I noticed the mohawk difference too, but passed if off as one pic with her head up and the other head down.

Agreed, plus they raise and lower their mane....all the time. I have dozens of pictures and videos of that (minutes, seconds apart).

IF it were clear that one of the hogs simply had no mane/mohawk that would be different. But both photos show one. The rest of the hogs physique is just TOO dead on....for it not to be the same pig IMO.
