#26244

I was visiting my father’s retirement apartment last week and the gardener found a youngish hog stuck in a tube rat trap. Thankfully there was no poison and the hog seemed fine. I took the opportunity to advise them how dangerous traps are to hogs and they removed them. No harm done on this occasion but it shows how important it is to keep publicising these and other dangers to hogs like netting and strimming. Most people will listen, particularly when, like this, they get to see what the dangers can do.
