@argentinaperono THANK you so much for that information! I had never heard this before. As a hog hunter, I really enjoyed watching these pigs. They do have a very long snout compared to our hogs in Texas. Regards.
@colonist The shovel was all we had other than arrow, and the guide was screaming like a girl so I took care of it. He was terrified of snakes. I cut it's head off and the mouth continued to open and close so I buried it for him. Some people are phobic and this was one of those people.
I seen some awesome footage of wildfowling in Argentina, did u get a chance to do that, there was literal thousans o duck and eese, total unbelievable, im big into wildfowling but never seen anything like whats over there, a really untapped resouce!!
I was in the La Pampa area, and there was so, so many dove.The trees were totally covered each evening with roosting birds. South Africa is the same. I spent all my time in Argentina chasing a Red Stag and then a wild boar, but didn't find the boar. Notice the snouts on the pigs? Long!
I would like to visit there again someday. I was at this same lodge in 2006. Argentina Safari in La Pampa. I see the guide Negro on your video. He likes to hunt Red Stags, yes?
Yep, that was Negro. Mr. Macho is deathly afraid of snakes! I killed that snake in front of him and laughed at his whining about me putting it in the truck. Too Funny!
My guide was scared to death of the snake. So, I killed it so he could learn more about it and hopefully, get over his fear of snakes better. He's a guide. He can't be scared of any animals as much as he was of the poisonous snake. When people can touch something, it helps them understand the animal or insect, and their fear, and why they have such fear. I teach people this way often and it works.
The name of that hog is jabalí (sing.) jabalíes (pl.). That animal is not native, they brought from Europe many decades ago.
