wow. The family thought it was around 90lbs when it weighed close to 200? Interesting.

I'm not saying the deputy did the right thing or anything like it... but...
There was one out here near me that looked like a small, wild hog. The folks that owned it let it out to roam their pasture (about 20 acres on the edge of town). The first time I saw it, I did a double take and actually stopped the truck before I realized that it was probably a pet because it didn't split the second I let off the gas). After seeing it for a week straight in the same field, I finally caught on.
If it was walking across a field at Tejon, I'd probably have shot it. I may not have a whole lifetime of experience as a hog hunter, but I think I know what a hog looks like in the wild. This one would have passed, easily.
I'll add that we (my folks) had a pot-bellied pig. At its peak, it barely touched 100 lbs.
