I see nothing wrong with killing that thing. It's a hazard to the environment, it destroys indigenous wildlife and plants and could/would kill any creature (including humans) that wanders in it's path. Wild pigs or boars are extremely dangerous and ill-tempered. Remember that pigs are not a native animal and in the wild are something akin to the infamous snakehead fish with thier impact on the surrounding environment.
Also it's not like he just killed it and buried it, they at least are using it for meat and mounting it so it's not like the creature was wasted and killed for no reason.
Even if the size is exaggerated, it's still a big son of a bitch so arguing over the fact of it being slightly bigger or smaller doesn't matter. It's still a huge animal and that kid has every right to be proud of his kill.
I don't get the whole thing where everyone is ragging on that kid for killing it. So what if he's a redneck kid? That doesn't matter either. I just don't understand why people have thier panties in a twist over this thing.
