After lining up several hogs and firing a shot last year as they were eating that evil CORN at the place I can shoot from my front carport, I went down to see what kind of carnage I had wreaked, and started dragging hogs to where I could pick them up...
I looked down and there on the ground was a big, black hog's tail just like the one you pictured!
All the dead ones had tails, so I reckon one got off minus his tail!
