been having pics of several hogs in my food plot. 3 really large boars with several smaller hogs.
shot 2 early yesterday then yesterday evening i was sitting at the plot and could hear them coming in behind me. heard grunting and squealing....then started hearing a low growl sound as they moved around behind me. was a very low pitch and a long growl. sounded more like a bear but ive never seen one out there
so, do hogs growl or was i being hunted by something???

yes, the big boars can make a growling noise. the little ones can too, but it's not as deep of a tone. they also "pop" their teeth sometimes also.

Heard one a few years ago make a loud arse roar. He would do it every minute or two and heard him making his way down a creek. Suspect another dominant boar was in his area or something. I'll admit, it made the hair on the back of my neck stand up and i was a little shaky walking out with a single shot 45-70 and small led light clipped to the bill of my cap

The wife's pot belly does, but I would compare it more to a deer grunt than a growl...

She does it when she is pissed and the hair on the back of her neck stands on end...

I have heard the growl, what I would consider a string of very low grunts, in two occasions. Injured and immobile hog, or hog that has winded you but is not sure what you are yet.

Had a big boar wind me across a little bayou last year. That big bastard started making sounds that made my skin crawl. He walked up and down the bayou bank for a good 10 minutes sniffing, grunting and growling until he finally mosied on his way. He DEFINITELY wasn't scared of me.

I'll never forget the first time I encountered a group of them. Was bowhunting and all of a sudden there's what sounds like a buzzsaw in the pine thicket. Grunting, growling, jaws popping, etc. A couple come out but the big boy stayed in the thicket because he winded me. The anticipation of waiting for the thing that was making those noises to emerge was intense.

So, they were sows.
