OP) Only one west Texas animal, long-time residents say, will attack man without provo cation. It Is the wild hog, numbers of which are reported roaming the sandy reaches of Ward county In the xar southwest corner of the state. Pierce sows with litters attack men at times. They battle with such deadly effect that hungry coyotes and wolves are unable to seize, any of their young. Originally domesticated, the ant mats were turned loose before ma turity In the shlnnery (dwarf oak) region to fatten on "mast,'; or acorns. Cowboys rope those they wish to kill, but when one unex pectedly flushes a mother and her, young, the sow does not hesitate to charge the horse and Its rider. The sows band together In groups of three or four, quickly forming a circle when a prowling animal at tempts to slip Into the herd and snatch a pig. Fighting savagely with razor-like tusks, the soft's are a match for any predlatory beast of the regoln.
