so true on so many levels. Pigs flocking. Theives and other janwars will follow accordingly it seems. Nawaz ji already beat the boars to the palace though.
Pakistan’s new menace: Wild boars
The authorities in Pakistan’s capital Islamabad have launched a major cull of wild boars after they broke into a high security zone.
Dozens of the animals have been shot or poisoned so far in the ongoing campaign, which is centred around the grounds of the presidential palace.
The city is located in a valley in the foothills of the Himalayas which provides them with perfect cover.
The animals have become a public nuisance in recent years, causing serious accidents and property damage.
‘Population boom’
“Eighteen have been killed in the grounds of the presidential palace alone so far. ,” Mr Javed added.
At the moment though, he says the clean-up campaign is focused on the presidential palace.
Mr Javed said local citizens were responsible for the “spiralling hog population” as they threw rubbish in empty plots, which attracted them.
“We have hired hunters to track and kill the hogs, and they are sent out whenever a complaint is received,” the director explained.
Mr Javed said special permits had also been issued to concerned local citizens and some foreign diplomats to hunt the boars.
It was not possible to put a figure on the numbers of boars in the capital as no survey has yet been conducted, he said.
Pakistan, struggling with debt and insurgency, faces a new problem - wild boars, writes the BBC's Aijaz Maher.
