Scavenger Cam - Response to What Ate My Pig Last Night

While closing the distance certainly made the shot easier, I have come to the belief that I don't like pigs coming at me in the dark when I am on the ground with them.
Now try that unarmed and it is a pig that is being run by dogs...

Have managed to boot a couple as they go by... CLOSE!!!

Well, this scavenger cam appears to be a bust. It has been nearly three weeks and the hog is still there.

So I broke out one of my old hard drives that had images from 2009. I uploaded a set of images showing a previous scavenger cam of a 250+ boar that disappeared in 3 days. There are some 1277 images starting with a bloated boar impaled on a piece of rebar that finishes up with there being nothing but a big grease spot. Long about page 58, the coyotes are able to drag the remains off the carcass off the rebar and the last that is seen is where it has been dragged down the road. The images show lots of buzzard, coyote, and even bug action (looks like black dots on the pig during night images).

Sorry there is so many images, but you can skip around and look at whatever you like.

This was the first hog I ever shot, BTW.
 
I must admit I've been checking in on this one every day.......expecting to see something happen. The lack of buzzard action is kind of amazing.
 
Yeah, sorry. We even reduced the people traffic on the property (not that there was much) in hopes of giving the scavengers free reign.

The last pig I shot (the one with the angry bird) was on a property a few miles NW of mile and the landowner (and resident) reported buzzards on it the next day. :confused:
