I do not think there have been any pig attacks there and I am glad I wasn't the first. I weigh close to 200 and am pretty sure that pig could have taken me apart.

They say the pigs are being trapped and killed primarily because of the damage they are doing to the plants.

I am going to have to go back to check on the duck population.

However, those feral pigs can be a huge problem. They could easily - tear apart a pet or small child. Definitely should look some type of defense against them.




It was a great weekend!

I actually thought about giving it a good whack when it got that close to me, but I probably would have gotten it mad. Outwaiting it worked for me that time.

To me, the best defense would be to have a few dogs with us. But unfortunately, they do not allow dogs there.
