"while wild pigs are concentrated in the Prairie provinces for now, it is only a matter of time before they spread across the country unless urgent action is taken." https://thenarwhal.ca/wild-boar-canada/

A gap in the rain, fresh air all around, what a perfect time for a stroll. This family of wild boars certainly thinks so ! Didn't think this is the season for young ones but there are small piglets (squeakers?) munching about. That's Haifa city life for you 😂

If you recall, the #WildBoars were rescued by putting them in scuba equipment, which none of them had used before, and drugging them unconscious to avoid panic. It worked, thank God, but it's not obviously a better idea than bringing them out one by one in steel containers, if the steel containers had fit.

Don't feed wild animals in Singapore, especially wild boars.

"SINGAPORE - Feeding wild boars came at a high price for 19 people who faced penalties under stricter laws.
[...]
Feeding and irresponsible discarding of food likely habituated the wild boars, which can weigh up to 100kg, to associate humans with food, said NParks."
