I mentioned in an earlier post that the principal of Innovations Public Charter School, Mrs. Woerner, contacted me about problem pigs that are tearing up her campus. I met with her Thursday afternoon, and yes, there are pig tracks and rootings everywhere, and some real whoppers, judging from the tracks. They are seen most often at about 5:30 PM and then again within an hour of sunrise. She gave me the key to the gate and told me to have at it. She mentioned that they were having a board meeting that evening so I shouldn't start hunting until Friday. She also showed me the exit road where pigs run from one side to the other, both sides heavily vegetated with Guinea or "elephant" grass, the stuff that is 7 feet tall and really thick. I found lots of bristles on the barb wire that encloses the north part of the grass.
Anyway, I get a call today. Mrs. Woerner was leaving the board meeting at 10 PM and drove down the exit road. A huge boar burst from the grass to her right and slammed into the side of her car. It scared the hell out of her. She continued down the road and didn't get out of the car until she was home. Wise woman. I guess the only damage was a dent on the side of her car. I doubt if the pig even has a headache. It was an unintentional collision, I'm sure.
I would say that the school has a pig problem. Will pack up the crossbow and see what happens.
Aloha for now.
