[QUOTE="Old Boar, post: 836838, member: 2957"] I never tried to tag one for two reasons, I like living, and they have smallish ears and would rip the tags out in the scrub- they were slap marked, which was quick and easy. As they are classed as game, it is legal to shoot them on the farm, so maybe whereever this one came from, they did not see the need to tag or slap. A mature male may get to 20 stone (280lb?) but it would be unusual on a boar farm to have more than one boar (they fight rip each other apart) and commercially they are killed out at around 60kg (9.448 stone). It has been recorded that they can travel 20 miles in a day. The picture is of a warthog - a completely different animal!!! [/QUOTE]
