Jamison Stone, an 11-year-old Alabama boy used a pistol to kill a wild hog that just may be the biggest pig ever found. The hog weighed a 1,051 pounds and measured 9-feet-4 from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail. Jamison killed his first deer at age 5 and was out hunting with his father and two guides when Jamison shot Hogzilla.

The hog would have gone through a lot of pain considering the fact that Jamison had shot it 8 time with a .50-caliber revolver and kept chasing it for 3 hours. He finally quenched his bloody appetite when he brought the hog down (presumeably when the hog was already down due to loss of blood from the 8 shots and the 3 hour chase) with a point-blank shot!

According to him “I was a little bit scared, a little bit excited,” …boy how about a little guilty for making something that huge suffer for 3 freaking hours?

The hog’s head is now being mounted on an extra-large foam form by Cunningham of Jerry’s Taxidermy in Oxford. and the Stones are having sausage made from the rest of the animal.

People are now treating the hogzilla killer as a hero of some sort..to the extent of even offering him a part in a horror flick ‘The Lengend Of Hogzilla’.  He even appeared on talk shows and received words of congratulation from celebrities like Kenny Chesney.

What do you guys think of this? An animal should be killed in the least painful way. And hunting down something of this size and putting it though a 3 hour chase is just plain inhumane. He killed in a horrific way just to get some attention? Why are children allowed to hunt anyway?

Comments are welcomed….:-(

Here is something else that i found, Hogzilla was actually a pet! It was a farm animal, and not a wild boar, that was shot in the 150 acre low-fence area. It was an overfed pet, and gentle domestic Duroc swine, named Fred.

Dr. Melinda Merck, an ASPCA vet pathologist, writes, “Based on the lack of a conclusive kill shot and the prolonged time to die, the cause of death is most likely shock and exsanguinations [bleeding out] primarily from the injuries to the abdominal organs.”� Dr Yi-Horng Lee, a surgeon, agrees that the abdominal injuries sustained from the ill- placed gun shot wounds “would have caused extreme pain and anxiety for a prolonged period of time.”�

Jamison is not a fearless hunter who deserves praise and recognition. Jamison was chauffeured around a fenced-in hunting ground by his dad ,and he had to shoot the poor pig nine times in a three-hour period before it finally died. That unfortunate hog was tortured to allow that little brat his precious photo-op.

Mike Stone, Jamison’s father is an idiot by all standards!
