Dangerous Canadian “super pigs” may also be making an appearance in the United States, A.R. reports Interested in trade. These animals are hybrids that have the survival capabilities of a wild boar and the size of a domestic pig, and are also hardy and prolific.
This is a big problem because it causes serious damage to agriculture and wildlife, as it displaces native animal species. the AP Reports indicate that feral pigs often destroy farmers’ land for food and can spread infectious diseases such as African swine fever.
Hunting doesn’t solve the problem either, as past experience shows that hunters are unable to effectively reduce the herd, and their presence makes the pigs more wary and hidden. That is why shooting them has already been banned in many places.
Currently, these hybrid animals only live in Canada, but there is an increasing chance that they could migrate to the United States, so northern states like Montana, Minnesota, and North Dakota are already taking steps to prevent the invasion.
