Wild pig charged me

I lick. I'm a pot bellied (and blad headed), lover pig.

When I first built my house I would come home at night and often find a wild boar in my yard not far from my front door. There were no lights in the area and I would always hear him before I saw him. I'm no chicken, but he scared the crap out of me a few times. I decided to remedy the problen and the next time I walked from my car to my door I had a .44 in my hand. Sure enough, I walked from my car around the palmetto patch and there he was not three feet away. I'm ashamed to say I missed him. I was expecting him, but not that close. I don't know how I missed but there was no blood trail. I couldn't see my sights because of the dark(no lights and no moon), but 3 ft??? I later heard what was probably him accross the drainage canal from me on a vacant lot on several other nights (all 5 acre lots) but never in my front yard again.
