Hastings,
Back in the mid 70’s we hog hunted out of Pearsall, SW of San Antonio, Tx. There were brought in some high-strain Russian stock to intentionally breed w ferals. Well they developed what they wanted and were and are big and fierce. Much more so than just run of mill ferals, which often as you know have a lot of production hog genetics.
I see that similar in an operation up in Michigan w the bruisers. Cold weather notwithstanding.
I’ll bet some of the South Texas guys know exactly what I’m talking about.
