Here comes Gregory little Gregory Pecary.
The nocturnal gregarious wild swine.
Guess these little guys have Sports Team name potential.
I wonder if the Army could save a couple hundred billion on their current training of trannies and queers to cry more softly when “triggered” and instead use these feral hogs to fight the war on terror.
The javelinas are a more intelligent, aggressive, and effective squad than a bunch of queers and pansies and trannies in American uniforms pretending to be whatever they want to be.
I was out on the bombing ranges some years ago and came across a bunch of javelina. These animals are half blind and very aggressive. I drove on as it was clear they would attack. Nasty critters.
Money Quote; “Game and Fish says two people in the nearby area were reportedly feeding javelina and coyotes as recently as a couple of months ago.”
One of the local TV stations interviewed a neighbor. he commented about the folks in his neighborhood feeding the various wildlife because they though they were cute and could be treated like pets. These javelina lost their fear of man and ..........
Where I am, javelina are probably the only wild life I have not seen. But we and our neighbors are smart enough to know that bobcat ain’t no tabby cat and that coyote ain’t no puppy. AND the roadrunner don’t beat the coyote in a face off. Rattlesnake? Yes but not the coyote.
...that usually hangs around between texas and paraguay. Sometimes ranging as far west as catalina.....
That’s funny, because I’ve always heard javelinas will attack dogs.
We have a ton of Javalinas on the ranch and have only had one incident and yes it involved a ranch hands dog. Dogs are a natural enemy to a Javalina just like yote’s or bob cats. 2 boar Javalinas killed about a 75 lb pit bull the ranch hand had. Don’t go walking your dogs in Javalina country! Not only will they kill your dog, they’ll eat it too. They are lightining fast and have long sharp teeth. They don’t hook like a hog will, they bite and shake.
Wasn’t Ol’ Yeller attacked by a rabid pack of javelinas?
At first, I thought someone attacked her with a javelin.
Javelina:
A pig with the same body size as a large German Shephard, with three inch tusks, and knowing how to use them, and known to run in packs, and do produce many more piglets than the same number of German Shepherds in the same size pack, and with the those tusks, and if signaled by their scent gland on their backs, ALL will become very nasty, very quickly.
When I was young and not packing, I was treed by a huge boar.
Packs of feral animals are precisely why one needs far more than 7 rounds
Four legged AND two legged...
“attacked her and her two leashed dogs unprovoked...”
I wonder if the dogs were what set them off. I’m sure javelinas get into plenty of scraps with the neighborhood wolves and coyotes, so maybe it was a case of mistaken identity.
“the roadrunner don’t beat the coyote in a face off”
True, the roadrunner alone wouldn’t.... you have to give him the ACME catalog first to even the odds :)

30 to 40 lbs is about average for a Javalina, a big male can hit 50. 1 1/2 inch is about average for teeth and they can do some damage. The female usually gives birth to 4 (Red’s) per year. The herd or pack usually consists of a dominate female and and younger females with Red’s. While I’ve seen groups of 15 to 20 most average about 8 to 10. They have 2 sets of scent glands one at the rear of the back and by their eyes. They are not Pig’s!

I love javalinas.
““A pig with the same body size as a large German Shephard,....”
Ya, but how do they taste?
