Here is my take on all of this:
 Some pigs wil drop dead and stay down with a small cal bullet................. some get up and go away.
 
Some pigs will drop dead and stay down with a large cal bullet................. some get up and go away.

I shot a deer way way back in the early 70's . Shot it with buck shot #1's most likely. Was using my bird gun and had buck fever . The deer dropped on the third shot at 20 yards . Yea bad case of BF. Anyway my dad and I drag it to and place it in my uncles truck. We are all standing around looking at it and talking when the deer jumps up and out the truck and starts running across the field. Another uncle has his gun and shoots it . Now that most of them old guys have passed on i don't hear about it as much. Later we could see a hard hit on the forehead but nothing else from my shooting.
If ya can see it ya can hit it !

Wow..... sounds like the stalker girlfriend from high school that finds you on Facebook 20 yrs later and just doesn't give up! That's why I love visit with hog hunters. The toughness of hogs always amaze me.

 Is it possible that something large could have dragged that porker off for a meal somewhere?

Well if you are refering to my hog, no i watched him get up and walk away, now there is no doubt in my mind that something did finally eat him since we found bone and blood before the trail vanished, but he did walk away under his own steam.
