Default Cruisers Attacked by Wild Boars

Well, not quite.

One of the things we really like about cruising is going out exploring
in the dinghy. This afternoon we found a nice beach on an island
north of Green Turtle Cay that appeared to be deserted. Less than two
minutes after landing however, a couple of local inhabitants came out
to greet us. After polite apologies were offered, we were allowed to
leave quickly and quietly:

I saw a program called "Pig Bomb" last evening on the telly. It seems that
introduced domesticated pigs became feral, and then have interbred with
introduced Eurasian strains producing hogs up to 1200#.

My BIL lives in Montgomery Texas, and pig control/eradication is about all
them tough Texas boys can handle, and they've been through the mill with
breaking wild horses and Brahma bulls.

It's spread from 19 to 40 states, and coming to a doorstep near you.
Attacks within households and on personal property are common place.

I would expect it will get much worse before better.

Any wild boar experts out there?


Not an expert, but the tusks are actually the continuous growing canine
teeth, so both males and females will have them. However, on males, they
tend to be longer so as to be more visible.

Not that I'd be able to tell the difference, but those may not be wild
boar at all. They could be feral pigs.

Well, if you said boors, I'd think they resembled our own JustHate and his
BFF LooneyTunes.
Just my humble opinion of course.


Yeah, but both of those boors are just...loud-mouthed pussies.

30 inches high at the shoulder sure sounds like justhate...

Since you have never seen me, or even a full photo of me, you have no
idea of my "dimensions," as it were. But we have seen photos of you: you
are a short little **** with a greasy ponytail handle on the back of
your head and therefore we know your "tough guy" talk is nothing more
than your compensating for being a pile of **** of insignificant stature.

In other words, you talk tough but there isn't enough of you to back up
your loud mouth.

Oh...as to "visiting" your neighborhood, well, from what I have seen of
it from your photos and from what you have written about yourself and
your neighbors, I'm going to pass. I wouldn't want my car stolen in
broad daylight, and I'm sure there isn't room in your kitchen to park
it, what with the baby motorcycle in there. Right?

Is that 60 inches combined? Try prying them apart and measureing them
individually.
