I hear the kid missed. The pig had a heartattack from the sound of the gunshot. Five days later the kid died when he choked on a french fry.

Farmer says he is skeptical about whether Alabama hog was wild
ATLANTA, Georgia (AP) - The Georgia farmer on whose property a huge wild hog was killed in 2004 is skeptical about reports that an even bigger wild hog was killed in Alabama.
Last week, an 11-year-old boy used a pistol to kill a wild hog his father says weighed a staggering 1,051 pounds (476.73 kilograms)
and measured 9 feet 4 (2.74 meters), from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail.
But, farmer Ken Holyoak said Thursday he did not believe it.
«I don't think that hog they shot over there was a true wild hog,» Holyoak said. «If they don't have a DNA test and don't have a record of their tusks, they don't have nothing.»
Holyoak said he measured and weighed the pig _ nicknamed Hogzilla _ that was killed on his farm at 1,000 pounds (454 kilograms) and 12 feet (3.66 meters) long. Experts from National Geographic exhumed the hog's body and said it was as much as 8 feet (2.44 meters) long and weighed 800 pounds (363 kilograms).
«I need to stress that they did not have that much to work with, seeing as how the poor beast had been underground for nearly six months,» Holyoak said.
Hogzilla was brought down in 2004 by a hunting guide. An independent south Georgia film company is now making a movie based on the mammoth beast.
Holyoak said he could look at the picture of the hog killed in Alabama and tell it was not grown in the wild.
«That hog's so fat he could hardly walk,» he said. «He couldn't make it in the wild. I'm about 99 percent sure that hog was growed in a pen and they turned him out and shot him.»
