Probably not the Canadian invasion they were expecting: https://boingboing.net/2023/02/27/more-than-30-50-feral-canadian-hybrid-super-pigs-reportedly-headed-towards-usa.html
‘Incredibly intelligent, highly elusive’: US faces new threat from Canadian ‘super pig’ https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/feb/20/us-threat-canada-super-pig-boar?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other #FeralPigs
Wow. Hadn't known that #FeralPigs once lived here in #NYC in great numbers and ate garbage. Predated #rats? So my queries will be to #DSNY. Totally amazed that zero attention is drawn to their existence in old photos and drawings.

@soniashah @NatGeo And of course there's the tick issue. #Ticks love #FeralPigs..
@soniashah @NatGeo Will the feral pigs ignore the #daffodil bulbs like #rats do as those bulbs are poisonous?

@soniashah @NatGeo The more I hear about feral pigs or hogs, the more I like it as a solution to many #NYC problems. There are no crops in #NYC to eat outside of gated gardens. They will be a problem for motorists. Will they be a problem for bicyclists? Their presence will encourage all bikers to go slow. They will eat non-native invasives such as #japaneseKnotWeed, #ItalianArum and #LesserCelandine as they root around.
