Where does he live?

Why is there no on campus habitat? I bet the fans would like that.

When does he become too dangerous for public appearances?

Ironically, Tusk has his tusks removed.

When does he get replaced, when he dies?

He's a lineage mascot. There are new Tusks waiting for when he dies.

That guy killed one taking him to the Liberty Bowl in subfreezing weather several years ago.

His natural habitat would stink to high heaven, slop bucket and all.

so they all come from the same lineage? how far back? is it the same caretakers/breeders like UGA? How long do they usually last/live?

I think an enclosed hog waller in the middle of campus is a fine idea. There is nothing more pleasing than the smell of mud and pig shite on a warm spring day.

Yes.

I don't know.

Yes.

Maybe 6-7 years? Not really all that sure. I know one died whatever year we were in Liberty Bowl.

Do they cart him in for home games like mike the tiger or do they get him out of the cart and walk him around?

so the current lineup only dates back to 2002. Has having a live mascot always been a thing or more just recently

You know Arkansas has this wild card that they rarely ever play. Your posters come here talking basketball and football smack and rarely live up to expectations, all along you have this in your back pocket.


Ragnar, a wild hog captured in south Arkansas by Leola farmer Bill Robinson, killed a coyote, a 450-pound domestic pig, and seven rattlesnakes.

From here on out anytime anyone picks at you guys just talk about your insanely awesome mascot. Game over.

BTW, Ragnar? Great name
