    Again, non-native and invasive are not the same thing.

    Invasive species are by definition harmful to existing species, economies, health, etc. Introduced species that do not harm existing systems and which are broadly seen as desirable are by definition not invasive.

    So yes, the fact that people like them does mean they're not invasive. That's the definition. Look it up.

    Or alternatively, keep making a public fool of yourself.

    Incidentally, one of the things that makes invasive species invasive -- i.e. that gives them the opportunity to INVADE, which is the root word of invasive -- is that they don't need to be "given the opportunity." They do it on their own.

    I guess wild hogs are responsible for these boorish posts.

    Yet another point against introducing them.








    Thank you very much, I'll be here all week. Try the veal.

    Except that the eagle is a native species, not a new and disruptive addition.

    The eagle is protected, I cannot shoot it or eat it !,
    Whereas I can shoot a feral hog anytime and anywhere [except within city limits ] and myself and family can enjoy the meat.

    Higher survival and birth rate makes up for less meat. Got an old barn? You can be a pigeon farmer.
    Take the warning labels off. Darwin will solve the problem.

    I wonder if it is the Spanish blood in the Eurasian boar that increases the litter size and rate? This seems to be the only difference between a tolerable population in Europe, and the havoc experienced in the US. Pure strain Eurasian boar would do fine in our climate, they would also give me a reason to buy a Bullarab dog!! Some of the catch dogs look just incredible, big brass gonads jingling away as they lock onto a pig.

    I expect that an eagle killing a fawn is rare. A pig common
    Rat control. Or I mean pig control in Australia.

    Same kind of deal in Texas. Destructive pests. Expensive and hard to kill.
