These “super pigs” are actually from Canada and they’re not only uber-intelligent but they’re also very vicious and dangerous - and yes, even deadly.
And now, these creepy “super beasts” are poised to invade the US. And besides being very scary and super smart, they’re also very destructive and have cost Canada billions of dollars.
KATV reports that an invasive species of crossbred "super pigs" from Canada could eventually become an issue for the United States and experts are continuously sounding the alarm while monitoring the situation.
Wild pigs have plagued southern states in the U.S. for decades now, according to the Smithsonian Magazine, with the animals destroying crops, killing native species while being a walking petri dish of diseases that can spread to humans.
Those pigs reportedly stick to warmer climates like Florida and Texas but still have managed to cause an estimated $2.1 billion in damages annually, according to Texas Parks and Wildlife.
Now, according to experts, a breed of wild cross-bred "super pigs" threaten northern U.S. states with the same woes.
Those "super pigs" are reportedly a crossbreed of domesticated and wild swine, who are larger, hairier, smarter, and boast quick and fruitful reproductive qualities alongside a lack of natural predators.
We have already documented pig occurrences less than ten miles from the U.S. border. Quite honestly, I think there have already been some in Manitoba going into North Dakota for the last five or six years," said University of Saskatchewan’s Canadian Wild Pig Research Project leader Ryan Brook to Field and Stream in January.
There is no physical or biological boundary at the U.S.-Canada border. There is hardly any kind of fencing to speak of," Brook reportedly added at the time. "There’s a real risk of pigs moving south into the U.S."
Brook also told Field and Stream that while Canadian farmers initially thought once they released their domesticated populations into the wild that the "super pigs" would have a difficult time surviving a Canadian winter, that pro
ved to be incorrect. "One of the things they do to survive is tunnel under the snow," Brook reportedly said.
Those released populations quickly spread to become a national problem in Canada.
What the heck is going on in the world these days?
Well, honestly, this seems like the next logical step, doesn’t it? Pandemic, non-stop train crashes, arresting former presidents, deadly killer pigs…
Yep, welcome to Clown World USA.
