Hunter Attacked by Angry Boar During Thermal Hunt with Trijicon REAP-IR Thermal Scope

Incredible hog and coyote hunting footage from Chris Robinson of Night Crew TV, including this large boar that ran full steam at Chris from about 100 yards away after being shot.
All hunt footage was shot through the eyepiece of the Trijicon REAP-IR thermal scope. This video footage illustrates the incredible image quality seen during use.
**Feral Hog Problem in Texas**
Each year feral hogs cause millions of dollars in damage in the form of damaged crops, contaminated water supplies, broken equipment, transmission of disease and injury to livestock.
Due to their intelligence, adaptability, and prolific breeding habits, traditional methods of hunting and trapping have been largely ineffective in reducing the feral hog population. Since feral hogs are not considered game animals in Texas they may be hunted by any means or methods at any time of year. Some of these methods include large round traps with remote trigger capability, hunting with dogs, and helicopter hog hunts.
Recently, with the increased availability and affordability of night vision and thermal optics, farmers, hunters and citizens alike have access to new weapons/tools to aid in the fight against feral hogs.
**Why hunt coyotes?**
Coyotes are presently the most abundant livestock predators in western North America, causing the majority of sheep, goat, and cattle losses. For example, according to the National Agricultural Statistics Service, coyotes were responsible for 60.5% of the 224,000 sheep deaths attributed to predation in 2004.The total number of sheep deaths in 2004 comprised 2.22% of the total sheep and lamb population in the United States, which, according to the National Agricultural Statistics Service USDA report, totaled 4.66 million and 7.80 million heads respectively as of July 1, 2005. Because coyote populations are typically many times greater and more widely distributed than those of wolves, coyotes cause more overall predation losses. The United States government agents routinely shoot, poison, trap, and kill about 90,000 coyotes each year to protect livestock.
Coyotes typically bite the throat just behind the jaw and below the ear when attacking adult sheep or goats, with death commonly resulting from suffocation. Blood loss is usually a secondary cause of death. Calves and heavily fleeced sheep are killed by attacking the flanks or hindquarters, causing shock and blood loss. When attacking smaller prey, such as young lambs, the kill is made by biting the skull and spinal regions, causing massive tissue and bone damage. Small or young prey may be completely carried off, leaving only blood as evidence of a kill.
In the absence of the harassment of coyotes practiced by rural people, urban coyotes are losing their fear of humans, which is further worsened by people intentionally or unintentionally feeding coyotes. In such situations, some coyotes have begun to act aggressively toward humans, chasing joggers and bicyclists, confronting people walking their dogs, and stalking small children. Non-rabid coyotes in these areas sometimes target small children, mostly under the age of 10, though some adults have been bitten.

Buy an ar-15 and a $6000 to $10000 night vision scope, farmers will pay you to shoot hogs, and you tube will pay you to film it.

Great video and I must say AMAZING running commentary from some here in the peanut gallery that I would bet have never shouldered a rifle, or hunted hog or coyote (or anything else) in their life! Where's YOUR hog hunting video's on youtube so I can watch them? Aren't any? hmm..shocked I am lol. It takes skill AND nerve to hunt dangerous game with a bolt gun instead of a semi auto AR platform with a thirty round mag..and yes, I own both. It REALLY takes a lot of nerve and presence of mind to manage to get off a follow up shot at something that is extremely pissed off and charging at you! It's very easy to arm chair quarter back someone from the comfort of your home while critiquing a real hunter who is actually in the field.

Every summer when I was young I used to spend it on my aunt and uncle's farm. Every evening he and I would go up on the hill that looked down where the cattle was kept during the day. At first I didn't understand what we were getting ready to do until my uncle shot the first groundhog. I asked him what was the purpose of that are we going to eat it. He started laughing and said if I wanted to have it for dinner I had to go down here and skin it myself. He went on to tell me that the holes that they put in the fields are very dangerous for his cattle. If one of them falls into a hole they could break their leg and they have done that in the past. So after he took me out there a couple times part of my summer chores was to go up on the hill early in the morning as the sun was coming up and then back up there again in the evening as the sun was setting. I would have killed for her night vision back then. I don't know if back in the late '70s and early '80s if the public was allowed to buy them. If you were I'm sure it was very expensive. Just a size of the scope was impressive. Today with the technology it's unbelievable. I really do miss sitting up on that hill.

[@toddhaynes7145]

The thermal scopes are crazy. What is widows foxes or coyotes they were taking down? I know about the major pig problem but what are the foxes or coyotes doing in that area as well? I heard coyotes and fixes destroy chicken coops. Is that accurate and what are they getting?

[@DanKoning777]

Zack you're giving animals way too much credit-they're not human beings "with families" that they introduce to each other when they go out, no matter how hard some people try to disprove it. They're not born with an inherent sense of shame, have a conscience, or an ability to reason beyond what animals are inherently programed with from birth. If they did feel shame and have a conscience they wouldn't regularly kill, eat, and/or mate with their young/family while the rest of them watched.

[@mikearmstrong7830]

I'm not saying that you won't get charged if you're wearing a sidearm, but the chance of a successful charge is significantly diminished.

[@JimmySilverFoot]

So what you're saying is put down the rifle that you already have in firing position and draw a sidearm?

[@ronaldmcdonald23123]

@@JimmySilverFoot i think he was out of ammo before it cut to the charge he even says "i think im out man" he was in the middle of a reload i think. So yea id carry a side arm probably sime kind if revolver cartridge cuz a 9 wont stop a hog

[@ii2slick4uiilol40]

@@JimmySilverFoot of course, it's same amount of time that it takes to put a round in the chamber plus it's more bullets it can fire at once. If that pig knocks you on your ass that big ass rifle isn't going to do any good. Best hope is you pull out a 45 or even a Glock.

Yeah the last time I hog hunted with a bolt gun I was only able to shoot 3 in the head at a dead run at 75 yards. If I had an AR it would have been a lot better. I now hunt hogs with an AR. And that was some crazy shit having that hog charge you guys. WHY did you allow him to get that close without pumping a round into his head? That's why I carry a semi auto .45 side arm. :) Great video! Mmmm bacon! :)

At 1:38 to about 1:46 you can see above to the left of the coyote, back in the trees something walk up behind a tree, bend down and poke its head out and pull it back. I believe that's a Bigfoot. It's clearly walking upright, stooping down behind a tree, peaking out to see what is going on. Then pulling his head back. The head moves upward as is it being pulled back. and it looks like a hand is put on the side of the tree before it's head pops out. Unless you had other hunters in the woods, stupid enough to be in the line of fire, what is that? Everyone send this to ThinkerThunker so he can stabilize, zoom in and analyze it.
