Hogs honoring a bay

This has nothing to do with hogs rallying but this past hunt I went on my older dogs had gone out and so it was just me and my 8 month old pup in some waist high fern. There were alot of trails going through this fern so I had a feeling there could be pigs bedded down close when I saw a down tree I jumped up on it and as I did a nice boar came out about 5 feet in front of me from under the tree! I had to check my underwear before continueing on and when the older dogs got back I tried to put him on it but we never did find him. Could've been a barr but all I know was he was big and had some dental work, I tried to get my pup to go after him but I think it ended up better for her training that she didn't as that would have been her first attempt at stopping her own hog and only the 5th pig she's seen! I'm not one to climb trees when the boars come a running but I am happy he didn't come at me as the only tree around was the one he was under.
