we raised hogs that big back on the farm when I was a kid.
I would say that the hog in question is a domestic that has gone wild, may even have been bread in the wild as well.
as we all know wild pigs are found on most islands in the pacific wich would mean at one time the water level was low enough for them to walk over or they were carried over by early explorors per chance they should ever come back to the island or become stranded there in the future.
but yes domestic highbreds to get that big and do breed with wild populations after escape. and yes they escape farms and trucks all the time.... as do cows and steer.
