It's a fake but a darn good photoshop job. I worked for a software company designing 16 bit color correction software for remote sensing. In layman's terms for extracting hidden data from satellite images, so I know what I'm talking about. Zoom in on the first image and look at the resolution of the guys and then the boar. The boar has been blown up. The edges of the boar also show residual artifacts from blending.

I don't usually post much over here, just read but those aren't photo shop, just cleverly photographed far enough behind to look fake. And they aren't even from the USA, its from Turkey. They have been in circulation a while...good pig though. None of those guys are american, you can tell very easily.

Just google "Nature Tours" & you will find out where the picture is ACTUALLY from.

It looks about as right as this photo. Photography is 2 dimensional. It shows width and height but not depth. Stand far enough away and you can support the Eiffel Tower on your fingertip. dude ... that coke bottle you're standing on is HUGE!

Ok, Russian boars can get huge, especially in a high fence, controlled enviroment.
But, I will say this.... Those pics are bogus. Reason, that head alone will weight 200 plus pounds on a pig that big. Look at the head, it is up off the ground, and mouth open at the same angle in all pics. I've never seen an aminal that was shot to be able to still hold it's head up if it's dead. Even propped up, it's jaws will be closed due to the weight of the head. Unless they have something in the mouth proping it up too!
