It is known that they were first introduced in the States in the 16th century and since then, according to statistics, they have been harmed annually of $ 2. 5 billion. However, scientists fear that with the advent of super -northern states, this figure can grow sharply. In focus. Technology has appeared its Telegram channel.

The fact is that previously low temperatures of the northern states prevented pigs in these regions, but this hybrid species seems to be not afraid of low temperatures.
In fact, this group of super peculiarities is a hybrid of domestic pigs and wild boars - such a mixture has made them extremely smart and durable, and now, according to scientists, it will be extremely difficult to get rid of. During the study, scientists also noticed that they have been "traveling" outside the border of Canada lately and appearing in the northern states of the United States lately - scientists believe that they can pose a true threat.
This type of hybrid pigs was bred by farmers in Canada, resulting in large pigs, which are much more resistant to cold, and therefore it is easy for them to move and multiply at lower temperatures at which ordinary domestic cattle would simply be extinct. Despite the fact that these superstles began in captivity, the fall of the boar market has led to many of them simply released and provided to themselves. According to Dr.
Ryan Bruck, who heads the Canadian research project of wild pigs of Saskatchewan University, it has become a real surprise for scientists that this new supervis is capable of surviving at such low temperatures. The main problem of superflies is that they are poorly used with local species. The fact is that they not only make serious competition to other types of resources, but also indifferent to the nests of some species - for example, turkeys.
According to the pavement, wild pigs are one of the most dangerous invasive species on the planet, so society should do everything to try to protect vulnerable local ecosystems from their influence. However, these superstles are extremely smart and elusive, and the more they put pressure on them, such as hunting, the more elusive they become - they hide in thick forest, disappear in wetlands and can be very dangerous.
