I sent an email to my friend to see if I was remembering the story about the hogs killing and eating the cow right. Below is my email and his reply.
It seems like I heard a story from you about your Dad penning up a cow in Mason one evening to load out in a trailer the next morning. Next morning no cow and only a piece of hide left, and your Dad came to the conclusion that hogs had killed and eaten it. Am I remembering the story right? I have had people tell me this is BS as hogs would not do this.
That is a true story. I talk to a man in Elgin today who lost two of five Pyrenees dogs to hogs last week. There was very little of the dogs left as well. I’ve seen them kill and eat a coon at deer feeder while I was hunting in Bandera. Hope this helps clear a few things up. I’m not sure the cow my Dad referenced was physically able to defend herself but she was able to go to the sale. Probably was a bargain either way.
