Chased or in the way? A hog's escape route is, normally, back the way it came. If the one you saw had just crossed the road and you came along and spooked it, it might have seemed to be charging when it was actually trying to get away. Edit-Your headlight might have confused it, too.

300 lbs is good size, but not prticularly big.

This is the biggest I've heard of, but it wasn't in FL. Up in AL.

Are there many in FL? In some areas they're almost as bad as mosquitos. Want some?

I know some guys that catch them live. Bay them up with catahoulas or blackmouth curs, sometimes they use a catch dog, sometimes they don't. One guy got bit on the hand by a hog a little bit back. The hog didn't just bite and let go, it bit and ground down. He said the could feel the hog's teeth grinding on his bones. Messed him up pretty good. Did some permanent tendon damage.

In FL all free roaming swine are considered feral. Not native, if they're on private property they are considered to be property of the landowner. On public access property they are considered game, with seasons and bag limits.

A young wild sow is some of the finest eatin' there is.
