TRENTON (AP) Rural Gloucester County has a boorish problem on its hands: wild boars.
More than 100 of the creatures are ripping up golf courses, wrecking farms and fields, and killing native plants.
The feral swine are descendants of domesticated pigs that were released years ago, and have since multiplied as they returned to their wild ways. They're leaner, meaner, hairier and more hostile than the fat, lazy porkers that bring home the bacon.
The state Department of Agriculture signed a contract with federal biologists in April to trap, test and kill the hogs, but so far are only three have been bagged.

About 1986, in Ft. Benning, GA. one of those things chased me around the bivouac site. I ended up crossing the river to get away from that fucking thing.
