Well we got a lung wrap on him and stopped the bleeding in his shoulder and got him stabilized enough for the vet, it was just a lost cause. Ol Quervo was tough but it was just too bad. So I knew they were gonna have a vet bill. After everything went down I kinda wished we would have killed him...

When we were stabilizing quervo that hog broke one of my hobbles and ended up gettin across the pasture to the next tree line (didn't have enough leads to tie him to a tree). After everyone left to take quervo to the vet I was there by myself and realized the hog was gone. Tracked him as far as I could but lost the trail in the grass. Turned lacy loose and she went and bayed him up in the next tree line bout 200 yards away. Didn't want to turn soco loose on this guy again without gear on so I tried to creep in and leg him while lacy had him distracted. Long story short, that pig could move pretty quick with three legs hobbled, and lacy wasn't distracting enough. He got me down in some thick brush, bit me on the leg but didn't get a good grip, I was hollerin like a little girl but got his ears and shucked him to get a back leg. Ended up using lacys collar to tie him to a tree this time so I didn't have to go through that again.

Sold him for just over $127 and the vet bill was $135, so I'm giving the money to Devin and Zach to cover most of their bill. He would have made a real nice mount, but us college kids need the money when we can get it.
