Guest guest Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 From ANIMAL PEOPLE, January/February 2007: Hong Kong kills feral pigs " The solution to the increasing havoc caused by marauding bands of wild pigs in the New Territories is relatively simple: kill them, " reported the South China Morning Post on December 21, 2006. Sarah Liao Sau-tung, Hong Kong Secretary for Environment, Transport and Works, confirmed a day earlier that members of hunting clubs in Tai Po and Sai Kung had been officially encouraged to hunt pigs more often. " We believe a lot of people will volunteer because they enjoy it as a hobby, " Sau-tung said. -- Merritt Clifton Editor, ANIMAL PEOPLE P.O.
