    Question The rampaging pigs of the San Francisco Bay Area...

    The rampaging pigs of the San Francisco Bay Area...

    Bay Area residents go to great lengths to accommodate the wealth of wildlife around them. Not so for the rampaging feral pigs. They are tearing up lawns, ripping through golf course fairways, threatening the drinking water and disturbing the harvests at Napa vineyards. Many Californians want them dead.

    “They are a pest to just about everybody and everything,” said Eric Sklar, a member of the California Fish and Game Commission who strongly supported a bill introduced last month in the state Legislature that would make it easier for hunters to kill feral pigs. “They’re very, very destructive.”

    For decades, feral swine, armed with their knife-sharp tusks that protrude from snouty mouths, have torn up fields of corn, peanut and cotton in wide swathes of Texas and the South, causing what the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates is $2.5 billion in damage every year.
