The Boone and Crockett Club (B&C) and Pope and Young Club (P&Y) announced in August that they have completed scoring procedures and are now accepting entries for javelina (collared peccary, Pecari tajacu) in their record books. B&C will accept entries of any hunter taken animal as well as “picked up” or found individuals. P&Y will accept entries of animals taken with a bow and arrow. The scoring procedures, minimum entry requirements, and scoring sheets are now available on the B&C and P&Y websites. While many different forms of peccaries went extinct, the collared peccary evolved in South America and spread northward into Mexico and the southwestern United States over the last few thousand years.
