“Incredibly intelligent and very evasive” Canadian “super pig” poses a new threat to the United States

In recent decades, wild pigs have become a growing menace to flora and fauna in the United States, wreaking havoc by devouring crops, spreading diseases, and even preying on deer and elk. Now, a new swine-related threat looms over North America as a Canadian “super pig” emerges, a formidable and highly elusive creature capable of surviving cold climates by tunneling under snow.

This “super pig” is the result of cross-breeding domestic pigs with wild boars, compounding the problems caused by the ongoing swine invasion…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

Pigs are not indigenous to the US, but their population has exploded in recent times, causing an estimated $1.5 billion worth of damage annually. The rise of the hunting industry targeting wild pigs has led to some localized control, where people pay substantial amounts to hunt them down with machine guns.

However, the overall impact of these undiscriminating creatures has been overwhelmingly negative. Michael Marlow, assistant program manager for the Department of Agriculture’s national feral swine damage management program, notes that pigs not only compete directly with native species for food but also act as accomplished predators, preying on young fawns and impacting other wildlife populations.

The environmental consequences of wild pigs are equally concerning, ranging from destroying farmers’ crops to damaging trees and polluting water sources. Additionally, there are serious human health and safety risks associated with pigs as they can carry viruses, like flu, which can be transmitted to humans.

National Geographic reports that pigs have the potential to harbor and create novel influenza viruses that could pose a significant threat to humanity. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Pigs were first introduced to the continental US in the 16th century by Spanish explorer Hernando De Soto, and their populations have seen rapid growth in recent decades due to intentional releases and illicit movement by individuals seeking to establish hunting populations.

Canada, too, faces a surge in wild pig populations, with the emergence of “super pigs” posing a particularly worrying challenge. These larger swine, bred by cross-breeding wild boars with domestic pigs, are not only prolific breeders but also well-adapted to survive the harsh Canadian winters. With their massive size, sometimes exceeding 661 pounds, and intelligence, these super pigs can endure extreme cold by tunneling under snow and creating snow caves for shelter.

Efforts to eradicate wild pig populations have met with limited success, and researchers and experts now focus on managing the damage caused by these invasive mammals rather than complete eradication. Some methods include trapping entire sounders of pigs in large traps or poisoning attempts, which have yielded varying results. A notable approach used in the US is the “Judas pig” method, where a pig fitted with a GPS collar is released into the wild to lead hunters to other unsuspecting pigs.

While control measures continue to be explored, it is clear that wild pigs, along with the emergence of “super pigs,” pose significant and lasting challenges to North America’s ecosystems. The task ahead involves finding sustainable solutions to mitigate their impact while acknowledging that complete eradication might no longer be feasible.

As wild pigs firmly establish their presence, the need to manage their population and curb their detrimental effects on the environment remains a pressing concern for the region.

According to the court documents, the 20-year-old defendant, Christopher, pleaded guilty to ra-ing one young girl and se-ually abusing three others over the course of a year.

But, unfortunately,, thanks to the judge’s sympathy, he won’t even set foot inside of a prison cell for any of his crimes. The victims of the defendant are tormented by the fact that their se-ual abuser will not be jailed for his actions. The defendant was formally charged with first-degree ra-e, third-degree ra-e, and se-ual abuse involving multiple minors when he was only 17 years old.

The abuse occurred over the course of a year at his home. He later pleaded guilty to two counts of second-degree se* abuse, third-degree attempted abuse, and third-degree ra-e.

Per reports, Judge Murphy said in front of Belter and his victims that he agonized over whether or not to imprison the rapist. He then announced that Belter would receive no jail time and just eight years of probation for his crimes because jailing him wouldn’t be an appropriate sentence…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

Judge Murphy went on to say that he came to his decision based on the ra-ist’s age at the time of the crimes. The defendant was 16 or 17 when he ra-ed a teen girl and se-ually abused three others, whose ages ranged from 15 to 16 years. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

“I agonized — I’m not ashamed to say that I actually prayed over what is the appropriate sentence in this case. because there was great pain. There was great harm — There were multiple crimes committed in the case,” Judge Murphy explained. “It seems to me that a sentence that involves incarceration or partial incarceration isn’t appropriate, so I am going to sentence you to probation.” Although the defendant is required to register as a se* offender, he received a sentence of two years interim probation which, if completed, will earn him Youthful Offender status. His probation restrictions include no contact with minors, living with his parents, employment or full-time student status, and no internet. “It’s going to be like a sword hanging over your head for the next eight years,” Judge Murphy remarked.

Christopher’s victims learned in court that he would receive no jail time. Understandably, they were stunned and disgusted with the judge’s decision.

One of the victim’s attorneys attributed the merciful sentence to Christopher’s race and economic status. “I am deeply, deeply disappointed. I expected a different outcome today,” declared Cohen, attorney. “Justice was not done today. He is privileged. He comes from money. He is white. He was sentenced as an adult, appropriately — for an adult to get away with these crimes is unjust.”

According to the court documents, the 50-year-old disabled woman, Asenka, was reportedly charged with murder for allegedly killing her mother.

The woman appeared in court and had an interesting request for the judge. Per reports, Asenka was charged with the murder of her 75-year-old mother at the home they shared and then dug a grave for her in the backyard.

She was brought into the court in a wheelchair, where she requested ‘the unexpexted’. Among the many people who commented about this incident, one person remarked: “Give her what she wants.”

Per reports, the 50-year-old woman reportedly said: “I want the death penalty. Lethal injection, please. The court does not want me alive, and neither do I.” She had reportedly told detectives that her mother, Carole, abused her physically over the years. When they fought the previous week, she punched her mother in the head and she passed away…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

The woman then spent the rest of the day digging a grave, stopping when she became exhausted. She later went to a neighbor’s house to say her mother had died, with the neighbor calling 911 to request a welfare check. When police arrived, they found the victim’s body in the bedroom and a hole in the ground several feet deep.

Police reviewed Asenka’s phone to discover she had taken photos after her mother’s killing, including injuries to her hands and arms that she allegedly sustained during ther fight. Prosecutors noted that the victim had obtained a restraining order against Asenka last year and filed to renew it, but the order was dropped when they didn’t appear at the court hearing. Asenka’s attorney argued that his client was afraid of her mother because of the alleged abuse, but a friend of the victim that the older woman was very petite and said she had talked about her daughter’s mental health problems.

Among the many people who commented about the murder case, one person remarked: “Give her what she wants. I know they can do it and quickly because years ago a man who had killed and abused two boys asked to be hanged and he was within the year.” Another commenter added: “How sweet of her to tell the court what she wants. Her mother didn’t have a choice and I presume she didn’t want to be murdered. Let her go crazy and rot in a cell.” One commenter agreed, noting: “Too easy! Let her suffer for the rest of her life for what she did. I suspect the wheelchair is a prop!”
