There has been an ongoing problem with offspring of escaped domestic pigs interbred with German wild boars that had escaped from a game preserve In northern New England for many years. I recall an afternoon when a herd showed up around the Sunapee ( N.H. ) High School, and they couldn't let the kids out to go home until they found a way to get the pigs to depart. The guy with the deer rifle turned the tide, but the incident went on for hours. Another time, several miles west of there, a lone surveyor was surprised by a crew of them, and was chased into an apple tree, where he spent the better part of the day before he felt safe enough to scram back to his car. He said the critters were clever, and pretended to wander off, but stayed close by, but out of sight, and would occasionally thunder back en mass to his tree to see if he was still around. These critters are for real!

Seen a half dozen of them just northwest of Toronto. All of southern Ontario is crop land and they’re thriving. They eat ducklings, goslings, fawns, snakes, everything they can get their teeth into. I’m in Ottawa now and it’s one of the top 5 beasts I would rather not meet on a trail. Other four being an angry bull moose, black bear sow, pack of coyotes, and now mountain lions are back.

Parts of this story sound made up like Canadian farmers letting pigs go because the market went down. The same thing happened to my stepfamily’s pig farm in the 90’s. You still sell the pigs off, you just won’t make as much for them, but you certainly aren’t going to simply release them. Are you going to just let $500. or $1000. go into the wild??

@jasondrummond9451 Жыл бұрын

If it costs more to ship them to the meat packers than you'd get for them ... yeah. And if a sow just farrowed and you don't want the feed cost to raise the piglets, because you won't get back your costs .... just open the gate.

Six million feral pigs in the US. No pigs in Canada before 2002. Thousands of pigs in Canada today. It's entirely possible that pigs migrated to Canada, (when they "rarely" venture to the North), from the US during the summer and some of them were able to withstand the winter.
