Catching a Boar

Yay!!! we’re going for a hunt today up on my papa’s friend’s farm. Woosh!!! the wind blew angrily as we drove to the farm. We were checking for pig rooting and pig signs. When we got to the farm we let the dogs out and stuck our brand new tracking collars on the dogs. After we stuck the collars on the dogs we walked down the air strip. We walked and walked and then we heard a squeal. My papa and I went to look for it but we couldn’t find anything so we walked around in big circles looking for it. On our way back we thought we’d lost it but then one of our dogs went missing. We found it but by the time we found it our dog had eaten the leg. We carried our 3 legged boar home. I carried it out half way huffing and puffing!!! Then I let my cousin have a carry. He was being soft and fell over 3 times. We were telling him to hurry up. He was taking forever. The dog even beat him. When we got home we weighed it and it was 40 pounds. Wow!!! It looked way less than that. Our boar would of been 50 pounds but the dog ate the leg. With the one good leg we made a chow mein. Yum!!! “I yelled.
