Hog Democracy

[ZenArchery]

Dropped a nice Sow around sunset. Only 2 mature sows that I could see. Idiots came back 7 hours later. Took out the second mature Sow. The remaining piglets started doing this long gargling noise. They continued to behind me and beside me off and on for the next few minutes. I couldn't get a shot on them from my box blind vantage point.

Ever wonder who becomes the head honcho after the alpha hogs are out?!

Weird cool experience. Video soon.

The one that can gargle the loudest!

UnoKay, you're either on to something or on something!

In that situation, leaders don't have a long life expectancy!

If no older sow to mother them, the piglets will stay together as their own sounder.

Gotta love a dumb hog... especially when it's the leader... shallow gene pool there (I'd surmise).
