    Boar sighting in region 6??

    in General Chit Chat

    Posted

    No tracks that stuck out Arrow nocker. It was right in the middle of a strong deer run so it would be hard to make out unless I was there shortly after what evers around.

    But... I did pull the camera out and im going to be going over all the pictures soon so I hope to have something!!

    I would be more surprised to see a bear than a pig there but anything is possible.

    I only mentioned the hair because it may be relevant to what could be running around. I pretty much think it MAY be a pig, fisher. Idk im hoping to get a picture or too it has a bunch of us thinking what it could be.

    Off topic your profile picture is sweet that's a wolf right?

    Ok fella's this is the story..

    He was in his stand that borders a bunch of high thick brush. He heard something moving around that sounded heavy { By that I mean it was making tons of noise so it would have to be something with some weight }..He looked but couldn't see anything at the time he heard nothing more then the brush moving. So naturally he was paying attention to what he was hearing when he heard the pig make what he called a gargle sound. He said it's very hard to explain so me trying here is even harder. I asked him if it sounded like a buck grunt and he said theres allmost no way.

    I went to the stand location today and while I was walking I bumped into some pricker bushes and they had a few peices of black hair on them about 1 n a half inch long, Just a couple of stray hairs not saying that a pig is the only thing that could leave hair behind.

    I didn't have enough time to get my camera out of there due to it getting dark fast but I did put one were he "heard" something. I'm really hoping to get a picture of whats running around. I have a huge deer I named the bull and now something else running around the woods. I'll keep everyone posted if I get a lucky pic i'll post it asap i'll be going to get my camera Monday or Tuesday.

    Sit tight or try to stalk?

    Hard to say now, got to go on whats happening in the woods at the time of the hunt.

    I was in the woods yesterday and had a face off with a nice 6. I stood still untill my legs were shaking while this buck was looking right at me. I stalked up to him but he knew I was there and ran off. Had the gears turning I can say that much for sure.

    Well I firgure I will try and confirm it's there myself I surely dont want to go off his word. I'm going to put a camera out this weekend and pull my other ones out see what I got.

    And I dont think we can just shoot them around these parts unless DEC gives me some sort of permit to do so.

    The hook to it is its on public land and the more I look these things up they seem pretty mean and aggressive. The mate like mice!!

    Well that would lead to my next question I have a few camera's out in the same area he hunts just none near the same place that he "heard it".

    If I do confirm that it is a wild boar should I call the DEC I never really called them for anything but not to sure if I should??

    What would you do arrow nocker lol??

    My opinion is... That was horrible ethics and poor judgement. Just a really bad look for the sport.

    I just looked at a 6 point buck about 100 yards away TODAY while I was shotgun hunting and knew I didn't have a great shot. I really wished I got the deer but seeing this makes me even more happy that I let him walk and didn't take a shot.

    I over heard a guy I work with say that while he was hunting in region 6, he heard what he though to be a wild boar? I sometimes hunt region 6 and myself have never heard or seen anything close to a boar.I found it interesting myself to say the least. I might go and set up a trail camera in hopes of getting a picture.

    Has anyone heard of any wild boar running around in region 6. I have heard of one being in Utica.

    Just wondering if anyone thought there could be some relevance to the story?
