Most (if not all) North American wild boars, are descended from escaped domesticated pigs I think it's even less than that.

Sorry, do not want derail this thread. All the worlds difference. Go to a farm and put your hand in a pig pen. Look at the people who are life king pig farmers and count fingers. Genetically there is nearly no difference from dogs to wolves. It’s all different socializing and training. Pigs are far further from dogs than dogs are from wolves too.

GCn20 Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 16 hours ago, Noeller said: again, just something I heard from an indigenous musician in Manitoba that I'm friendly with. I was as surprised as you all to hear that take.... He's not completely wrong. Some domesticated dogs such as huskies have been known to go feral and join wolf packs. However, they are ripped apart and killed just as often too. Letting stray dogs just go is just a very, very bad idea though. They starve, they get desperate, they pack up, and they get nasty. 13 hours ago, wbbfan said: I believe they have to be surrendered or requested when he’s in the area. I don’t think he’s going on private property un solicited and caging peoples neglected dogs. to be fair domesticated for farming meat and domesticated into a household pet is a huge difference. Add in that dogs have been domesticated as companions back 14-35k bce, and you have a very different situation. Animal rescuers can go onto anyone's property and take any untied dog on a reserve with permission of band council. Same way band constables will shoot any untied dog during dog days.

CFL News @CFL_News #Ticats pushing limit of their football ops budget, so to provide Milanovich w/ compensation presumably required to keep him here, they’d have to shave salary at other spots.

That's true. However, having no vehicle, and no garbage pickup kind of makes that unavoidable. Like most areas of abject poverty garbage piles up due to lack of resources for getting rid of it. coach17 and Deiter Fan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see it happening, Wade knows what's best for the team and allowing Walters to walk away isn't something he would take as inevitable because of salary constraints. He'll retain him even if he has to use curvy math and manilla envelopes to make it work. Tracker, BigBlueFanatic and Jesse 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
