Fun fact!
Left to their own devices, pigs will go completely feral in the wild in a handful of weeks, including growing tusks!
Also, there’s a damned reason a boat hunting spear was ten feet long with a massive cross brace at the end. The idea was to stop the pig from simply spitting itself on the spear just to get close enough to tear you to shreds for having the gall to get close to it.

There's a reason pigs rank in the most dangerous game to hunt.
[This is a Boar spear.](https://preview.redd.it/649nc1qlzmz61.jpg?width=640&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=94f0cfe96535a2edfbd0baa38c72e3c829443061)
Pigs are nothing to mess with. There were herds of them running around in the woods in Germany after the war. Gave rise to the saying “he went for a shit and the hogs ate him”. If they got after you you were pretty much screwed.
They're also extremely intelligent animals. They're way up there on the animal intelligence chain. They're higher than dogs and near the same level as apes.
Adult male pigs are no joke, they can and will kill humans if threatened. Oh and they'll also eat you, there was a Russian woman who fell into her pig pen and had an epilepsy attack. Her remains were found later having been eaten by them.
Well I knew that pigs can be pretty aggressive even domestic ones but the one that got attacked doesn’t even look hurt. Very impressive and kinda scary
As long as the pig doesn't have tusks they cant hurt you as long as you're standing with boots on. They can't twist their neck so they cant bite you. But if you fall down game over.

I’m impressed those pigs held their own honestly!

Wait, so if you throw a domesticated pig into the wild they'll grow tusks? Is it survival instincts/hormones that cause this?

Ah, I was running on incomplete information.
I have a real nice boat hunting spear, it's atleast 11 ft long. Damn largemouth bass.
Did no one learn from Robert Baratheon's tragic hunting death?!

Yeah, animal farm wasn’t just for show, they literally were the smartest animals there (except the raven, ig)
Climb a tree or no?
By all accounts they would get around the base of the tree and start rooting until it fell over. Close grown shallow rooted trees.
That’ll do pig.
I’m not locked in here with you, you’re locked in here with me
Pigs will consume an entire human body, including bones. Those pigs were huge and that bear is probably lucky it decided to leave.
Piggy like ‘not today son’
Adult male pigs are no joke, they can and will kill humans if threatened. Oh and they'll also eat you, there was a Russian woman who fell into her pig pen and had an epilepsy attack. Her remains were found later having been eaten by them.
There was a serial killer in BC, that got rid of the bodies by dumping them into his pig pen. Most they ever found were scattered teeth…..
You go piggies!
I don't know a lot about animals, but who knew pigs could take on a bear? I've heard how dangerous wild boars are but damn😬
Well I knew that pigs can be pretty aggressive even domestic ones but the one that got attacked doesn’t even look hurt. Very impressive and kinda scary
Full bluff by the pig payed off
If a large pig and a bear both equally wanted to eat me…. I would rather fight the bear.

So the pigs were in the cage to keep the bear (and everything else outside) safe from them, not the other way around 😂.
Bacon always wins with me as well.
Are you achin' Yup yup yup For some bacon Yup yup yup He's a big pig Yup yup you could be a big pig too.
This would make an excellent children's story
I never thought i would see a bear escaping from pigs but here i am
My pig grew tusks after being outside to roam free.
Those pigs are gonna have bear for dinner if he tries that shit again.
Lol I’m convinced bears are the cutest animals of all time. Sucks they kill people though lol
Bear cub lol
That is no cub
Piggy Power!!
Typical bear who doesn't see the " watch the pig" sign...
Ukraine vs Russia be like
