A side-effect of a dodgy memory

I keep re-discovering entelodonts AKA "Hell Pigs", a pig-like apex predator that went extinct about 16 million years ago.

Looks like there's some good eating on one of those things. According to Wikipedia, they had the shoulder height of a moose and 6 times the mass. Moose is already a very lean meat, so these things must have a lot of bulk and a solid skeleton to support it. You'd probably need around 6-9 deep freezers to hold the meat.

And they'd be thinking the same thing about us.
