Well, Hogzilla turned out to be an exaggeration, so this is bigger than a hoax?
I'll wait and see what National Geographic has to say.

I vote pohtography trick. The pig looks a little blurry, like it's close to the camera and the boy just happens to be in a leaning position but much farther away.
The website was up earlier today and they had a few more pictures of a massive pig that looked pretty real. But in all of them it seemed a lot smaller to me. So I think this one picture was just an exaggerated viewpoint.

They said it was a 1500 pound hog. If you've see the State fair hog in the swine barn, you know the bollocks on that thing were huge

This article says it's real
The URL is monsterpig.com/news. I went to the news paper website and searched. The same article is on their site but you have to register to read it. I they obviously are mirroring the article to prevent people having to register to read the article.
