Didn't see any live feral hogs today but I did find this nearly complete skull
in a small area of bare ground on the prarie. The lower jaw was about two meters
away from the rest of the skull and there were several other bones scattered
about but not nearly all of the critter's skeleton was there. There were,
however, some coyote and bobcat tracks. That's my U.S. size 11 workboot beside
it on the hood of the quasimobile for a size comparison. About the same mass as
a human skull but with an itty bitty brain case.

put it in a bucket with bleach and water, and set it out in the sun. it'll be
nice and clean soon.
