@ElBeeToots You know that I never realised that either Daft Punk or Pharrell Williams was involved in that song? 😳

It's been 6.5 years, yet I still cannot think of Pharrell Williams without thinking of this.

30-50 feral hogs running through his yard within 3-5 minutes while his small kids play, except now their flesh is neon blue (the pigs, not the childrens). What to do?

#Missouri has finally made major progress on the war against the invasive hogs that have been brought in from Texas. Now we have to worry about them from the north, too?!? https://newsie.social/@TheConversationUS/111767759134431562 #invasivespecies #feralhogs #blamecanada

Wild ‘super pigs’ from Canada are a growing threat to crops, wildlife and pets in the U.S. These 500-pound cranky eating machines are causing economic losses of millions of dollars as they spread Southward. https://theconversation.com/wild-super-pigs-from-canada-could-become-a-new-front-in-the-war-on-feral-hogs-218899 #wildlife #pigs #environment

Efforts by University of #Missouri #Extension, the state Department of #Conservation, and others to reduce the population of #feralhogs are paying off, with a 65-percent reduction in their numbers over the past five years. Feral hogs have caused damage to pastures and woodlands, especially in Southern Missouri, and have the potential to spread disease to domestic #livestock.

"Shooting can be an effective control measure when only a few individual feral swine are present in an area. If larger groups are observed, shooting a few individuals of the group can disrupt the social organization and cause them to disperse even further across the landscape, thereby increasing the potential for damage. It is also very difficult, if not impossible, to shoot all feral swine in a group at one time."

They've tried traps, contraceptives, and even a heavily armed Ted Nugent, but these #feralhogs are as stubborn as a Texas mule.
This is the same state that's already overrun by neo-Confederate libertarian bigots- maybe it's time for Texas and the South to get more Big Gubmint pork barrel spending.

Apocalypse Sow: Can Anything Stop the Feral Hog Invasion?

They’ve overrun nearly the entire state, causing hundreds of millions of dollars in damage annually in spite of widespread attempts at eradication—including traps, contraceptives, and a heavily armed Ted Nugent.
