Very impressive tusks - how much did the boars weigh?

No soo much, this are almost pure wildboard (European blood) living in a semi-desertic place with few food, normally they did not weigh more than 220 pounds, when are mixed with domestic pig maybe weight more (twice). Guille

You have a very good memory, G1.....Bobby, Bobby, Bobby....

(I wish you could have met him) Your hunt looks like it was one of the best. Those boars sure do look like pure Euro stock as well. But tell me, what is that wheeled thing that looks like a wheel chair?

A very old plough, to work the ground to sow, it was imported by the farm owner´s grandfather from italy maybe in 1900. But here is the last socialist farm technology
