Last month , me and my son were hunting along the Red River and put the dogs thru a pop cane patch where they jumped ....  It wasnt a surprise on where the hog ran since we had hunted there before and they tend to do the same thing.    They swim a big ditch about 400 yards from this spot and get on the other side of it nearly every time unless the dogs stop them before.   
Well this time they dont stop them til there about .6 from us on the other side of the ditch and they are showing bayed on the river bank.  I wish I could show the picture of where this boar hog was set up and it would prove to some folks that a hog AINT a dumb animal..
This boar hog knew where this log was off the bank of the Red River where he had to go down a 30ft bank and position himself where he had the log on his back side , which was the river on the other side of this log ,, but the water was only 3 ft deep in the wedge where he could stand a face the dogs up the bank of the river..   Ive got a video of it when I first hit the bank of the river up 30 ft and I thought to myself  HOW in the world did that hog know to get right there,,, He aint feeding down there so how did he know it even existed for him to get there...Huh?  Make a feller think twice to hog hunt if the hog had a gun,, we wouldnt make it..  LOL..

   According to science hogs are the smartest animal in the woods or on the farm and the boars are packing knives.

Highwater, I know exactly what you mean. I can back to a few such instances and it just makes realize that those hogs aren’t just strolling around, they’re paying attention.

I know if they escape once, they will use the same methods  or routes to get away again.
