Wild hogs in the High Desert?

[addicted2hunting89]

I live in Hesperia CA, and this evening while out 'yote hunting I came across a dead something. The closer I got, the more it looked like a pig. All the years I have been hunting the high desert(D-14) I have NEVER seen a hog. This was obviously a dead hog, had tusks about an inch and a half long, extremely big boddied!! I'd say he was at least a 230+ pound pig. Has anyone on here ever heard of wild hogs up in this area? I took 2 pictures, however I am new to this forum, and I do not know how to upload photo's to a post...

I saw a pig in Deep Creek many moons ago, down on the far west end by the dam. Supposedly a local ranched had some escape into the SBNF around there.

Where do you have the pic? On your cell or camera? You can upload pics from your computer by attaching them here. Use the attachment feature when you post.

I've heard of them here some guy showed me a pic on his cell too as much as I've been out there I've seen no signs of one going out next week to hike around so I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for them and I'll let you know

Wow, I've been all over the ord mountains and never seen one or any sign or tracks.. I did see something big get up and take off running once but there is no way it was a pig or yote. I'd definitely be interested in meeting up with you to put a hurtin on some coyote's.. Let Me know if interested..

I am ALWAYS game for huntin. I'm hobbelin around on a broken ankle right now, so I aint the best huntin partner at the moment. But after my surgery I'd be more than happy to meet up and wack some 'yotes.
spectr17, I have the pic on my cell. I know how to upload the pic to my profile, but how can I put it on this post for you all to see?

My brother lives up there, says people lose hogs and goats (pets) all the time. Unlikely there's a feral population there, they'd drop down if there were. Pigs are smart like that.

I can upload pics from my cell by plugging the cell into my computer with a mini usb cord. You can use Dropbox app if you don't have a cord, drop the pic into dropbox and it will appear on your computer dropbox and then upload here. Do you have a computer or are you only on a cell? GEt Dropbox, it's one of the best apps to have if you use more than your cell.

I believe I saw some in the Mojave River bottom near Hwy 18 back in the 90s. I still look around hoping to find some.

I'm callin it the elusive SD apocolyptic swine ! Probably ran itself to death after hearing of the impending aerial slaughter coming to the woods in SD county !
