Confronted with a pig the size of a pick-up truck, most youngsters would turn tail and flee.
But 11-year-old Jamison Stone is too keen on his sausages for that.
The boy from the wilds of Alabama is said to have pursued the monster porker for three hours through a hunting reservation near his home, firing his .50-calibre revolver seven times into its bulk before finishing it off with a bullet to the head.
Trees had to be cut down and a mechanical digger brought in to bring the animal’s body out of the woods.
“It feels really good,” said Jamison, from Pickensville. “It’s a good accomplishment. I probably won’t ever kill anything else that big.”
The boy killed his first deer when he was five and was hunting with his father and two guides on the 2,500-acre Lost Creek Plantation when he felt the earth move and spotted his prey.
