Yup I sat and watched a 240 lb sow jump over a 7 foot pen trap I had would jump up there and teeter tooter on the top and fall over the other side .  Have seen more than one do that .

Buddy of mine (bluecrazy) had a mule footed boar in a room/pen with almost 9' to the top and this little 40# boar would jump about five foot straight up then run up the walls another three foot, gripping the corigations in the horizontal tin  :o it was crazy how high he could jump!

A cuple years ago I was building fence with a Beakert Fence rep.
I told him that our hogs could easily clear a 4 or 5 ft fence and he told me no they cant , he said in texas they fence out hogs all the time ! But you know Reps are highlyy trained ! Guess Ill forward this pic to Beakart lol , thanks Monty !

Lol...yep. Saw a 250+ Boar try a fence at a bay pen years ago. He was a green hog so he wasn't exactly use to the bay pen scene. Anyway...they had standard cattle panels that had shade cloth attached. Above that, another half cattle panel...so like 6-7 feet. Well... This boar decided he had had enough on this particular run in a competition...took off and ran about 30-40 feet...dog didn't stop him...he had a full head of steam when he jumped...would have cleared the cattle panel w/shade cloth but hit the one on top...bounced back 10 feet...lol. Scared the bejesus out off some spectators though....haha!

We had a sow jump out of our pen one time, I couldn't believe it, lol. You wouldn't think they can jump like that with the way they are built but I guess that's survival instinct kicking in, lmao

Great pic! That'll settle some of the skeptics! I too have seen a hog jump a 6' fence at a bay pen, and he was gone!
