how far can a wild hog wind???

The only way I could figure the distance was common sense type calculations...the gravel road runs in straight lines but has 3 nineties if I include the hiway...I measured all distances and then calculated them down to fit on paper...I then drew a straight line from Paul's house to where our house used to stand...I then converted the lines into mileage...the calculation should be almost exact...

this hog had never been loose nor had he ever escaped from his pen....but there is no doubt in my mind he came because he could smell the sow...the wind direction had to be right, the temperature had to be right, probably the humidty and maybe even the barometric pressure...whatever it was to make the sow's scent travel and skim along over the ground for that distance...
