Over The Past Few Years,

I occasionally found and read articles about wild or feral pigs in America,

I had no idea how big the problem was until I read that they are estimated to cause $2.5 billion in damage a year, as recorded in The Atlantic, image via Yahoo News, “I’ve heard it referred to as a feral swine bomb,” said Dale Nolte, manager of the National Feral Swine Damage Management Program at the USDA to The Atlantic. “They multiply so rapidly. To go from a thousand to two thousand, it’s not a big deal. But if you’ve got a million, it doesn’t take long to get to 4 [million], then 8 million.” the wild pig population that’s growing at a rapid pace is terrifying experts. Called a “feral swine bomb,” these pigs have a population of at least six million and are growing quickly. These super pigs can bear piglets at only three months old! Most of these wild pigs are a mixture of domestic breeds and European wild boar, so they get massive benefits from all that genetic mixture, as Yahoo News details: The wild pig population has “expanded from 17 states to at least 39 over the last three decades” as the Smithsonian reports, 'A Plague of Pigs in Texas', I had no idea that the numbers were so huge, I guess some sort of yearly cull by sportsman could be in order, rather like The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission Python Hunt, we made a post about it way back in 2013, just be carful with the guns in the hunt!
