The average weight of a wild boar is 200 pounds (90 kg). Their head length is between 10 and 12 inches (25-30cm), while their body length is between 20 and 30 inches (50-60cm). Wild pigs have long legs with broad shoulders and short tails. They have a thick layer under their skin of fat.

They have a very strong sense of smell, hearing, and sight. These senses help them detect danger and find food. They can run upto 35 mph (56 km/h) at speeds of up to 14 mph and jump upto 15 feet (4 m) from a distance of just under 4 m. They are very sharp with their teeth and claws. They are aggressive when defending themselves against predators.

Hunting wild hogs are difficult because they are fast, intelligent, and elusive. Hunters must stalk them carefully. If hunters shoot too early, the animal may escape. Hunters who shoot too soon can kill the animal before it reaches cover.

Wild hogs can be killed using many hunting methods. The most common is shooting. This requires hunters to locate the animal and wait for it to arrive in range. Another method is trapping. You can trap hogs by setting traps near water supplies. Some traps contain a smell lure, such a corn meal with peanut butter. When the trap is opened, the hunter shoots a trapped pig.
