2011 Cooktown Hog Hunt

COEN, AUSTRALIA - OCTOBER 07: Tom Nevins leads a pigdog away from the kill during hunting as part of the 2011 Cooktown Hog Hunt at Silver Plains Station on October 7, 2011 outside of Coen, Australia. Feral pigs are recognised as environmental and agricultural pests reported to have a population of up to 23.5 million over around half of Australia. The Cooktown Hog Hunt is held annually with this year’s hunting window open from registration at 2pm on Friday to the end of weigh in at 2pm on Sunday afternoon. The use of specifically trained pigdogs is common with dogs used to follow then hold a pig in place for the hunter to dispatch it. (Photo by Mark Kolbe/Getty Images)
