"Incredibly Intelligent, Highly Elusive" Canadian "Super Pig" Threatens United States

The Canadian menace upon innocent America's northern border has only grown. We know that Canada has massed 90% of its entire population within 100 miles of the American border. Now we Americans face an even greater threat north of the 49th parallel: the "super pig".

The Guardian reports that a highly evolved* feral pig species originating in Canada is penetrating the US interior. Pigs, which Europeans introduced to the Americas in the Sixteenth Century, have become bigger, stronger, and perhaps more cunning. They can weigh 250 pounds (that's 113 kilograms in Canadian-speak). In Canada, some pigs have reached over 600 pounds and can survive the full strength of the northern land's brutal arctic winters.

Ryan Brook, a researcher at the University of Saskatchewan, boasts of his nation's super pigs, "They've definitely moved in, and they're here to stay."

*Evolved or, I ask you, genetically engineered as a war machine? I don't know, but I am asking questions.

When I went to England and Scotland their bacon was awful. It smells rancid. They don't use nitrates in their bacon. Secondly, they don't fry the bacon until it's crispy. It's limp and soggy with uncooked fat running through the meat. I went there is search of the best fish and chips and never had a good meal. The food really was sad. The best meal we had over there was at an Indian restaurant in Covent Gardens. I could have lived the rest of my life eating dinners there. We found a small breakfast diner in Covent Gardens and they made the best tasting tea I have ever had. They made it in an espresso machine so the tea leaves were steamed during the process. Wow. Just wow. And I'm not a big tea drinker but I would be if I lived over there.

Not our (Canadian) fault. You there, from down south, somehow came up with the name Canadian bacon. You know what we call bacon in Canada? Those thinly cut strips of delicious, pork belly. Same thing you call bacon down yonder. We don't even say "yonder".
Well, we clearly had enough. Enough I tells ya!! You want Canadian Bacon, well now you've got it. Meet our super pigs.
Mother sucklers.

When I lived in Louisiana there were many times when I was driving down a road or even a highway that I would see feral pigs standing by the side of the road. They were not cute and cuddly like Babe. They were downright scary looking.
