I must be getting soft. There was a sow and her piglets and a nice fat porker all in the group. They were about 10 yards away in the scrub and I cocked my rifle to shoot the porker and then got the guilts about breaking up the family group. Soon after they winded me and bolted, I saw the piglets disperse like a mob of blow flies. 20 minutes later I shot a deer and while dealing to that I heard oinking and those 2 little piglets came right up to me (no doubt looking for their Mum). They came to about 10 yards and then ran off. Ive got a little video of them.

Yeah, a bugger about Tilly. I will get a bit more out of her but I didn't want her jumping up and down off the quad or running behind it if I got a big load of meat plus my gear (which I did).
