A guy I worked for back in the 80s had a javelina for a pet, it nipped him on the ankle playing around and almost killed him, he almost bled out from the cut artery before getting to the hospital from his ranch outside Benavides Texas.
My buddy and I had a pet javelina that we kept at the motel his parents owned. One day an Indian dot was there looking at the place to buy. He made the mistake of kicking it and got bit, animal control was called and they took the javelina to the pound and the day before we could get him back someone cut the chain link fence and took him. They probably made tamales out of him.
