The boy is behind the hog. The use of a wide angle lens from a close distance introduces a considerable amount of foreshortening. This exaggerates the difference in size between objects that are not at the same distance from the camera. Let me steal WolfCub's picture to demonstrate:
Note the exaggerated proportions: the huge front paw and hind leg versus the tiny body and hind leg.
Thanks. I was thinking that as well. I called Winchester and was told a Foster type slug in 20ga would be fine in that gun. Off to Academy Sports for a little additional variety in the ammo supply.
