An 11-year-old boy was bitten by a wild boar in a playground in the Vardia neighborhood in Haifa

Tonight, Saturday, 20/6/20, around 17:00 p.m., an 11-year-old boy (whose name is withheld in the system) was bitten by Hazi Bar, while the boy was playing with his friends in a playground. The pig bit the boy's fingers, for an unknown reason. The boy managed to pull his hand out of the pig's mouth and the result is cuts on his finger. The boy underwent a series of treatments at Bnei Zion Hospital and is expected to continue receiving rabies shots in the coming weeks. The shocking story is before you, from the mouth of the upset mother.

We note that this is the second attack recorded in Haifa in recent years.



The mother, Tal Barak Asanesh, told Lahi Pa:

A group of children from the residents of Vardia were playing in the garden, at the entrance to the Vardia neighborhood.
In the garden there was a pig, whom the children know, because he often hangs around there. The pig was close and the children were not afraid of him, since according to publications, pigs are not dangerous. The pig approached the boy, when suddenly, the pig bit the boy's hand, for a reason that is still unclear. The boy managed to quickly remove his hand from the pig's mouth.

The boy arrived home injured, a superficial wound and a cut on his fingers. I immediately called the Maccabi Health Services hotline and they instructed me to urgently go to the pediatric emergency department. I took the child and we quickly flew to Bnei Zion Hospital. At the Bnei Zion hospital, we were treated in the children's emergency department, with exceptional dedication. They took seriously the special case of being bitten by a wild animal. They immediately washed in the Bnei Zion hospital with antiseptic liquid

The child received a dose of Augmentin antibiotics. He will have to take it for 5 days.
He received an injection against rabies at Bnei Zion Hospital (active vaccine into the wound)
Since it is a child's finger, the doctors injected part of the vaccine into the finger wound and part into the arm.
In addition, the doctors injected a tolerant rabies vaccine into the other arm.
Now, we have to go to the health office during the week to get several shots against rabies during the coming period. This is a long process.

The child's condition:

The wound on the finger is very painful, both from the bite and from the injection. The child is traumatized by the attack. This is a brave and physically strong child, he is involved in sports and I am sure he will manage to recover.

In conclusion, says the mother - we were saved by a miracle

This story almost ended in disaster. Our luck is that the boy managed to get his hand out of the pig's mouth in time.
I called Moked 106 in Haifa Municipality. At the call center they took the details from me and closed the phone.

I turn from this stage to Einat Klish and tell her that if her son had been bitten by a pig, she would not have behaved the way she did in this matter.

  1. The pig in its place in the wild and not in a residential area, it is able to attack as well as kill. I encounter them almost every evening, I love animals but I also want life for the animals and it is true that they live in the wild and those who want to see pigs should go to a zoo, safari or to the wild

  2. An example of the cheap and dangerous manipulation of pseudo-journalists.
    Until the end of the article, including the interview with the mother - not a word about the child trying to feed the pig. The subtitle reads that the pig bit the boy for an unknown reason.
    Only at the end of the article it turns out that the reason is very clear - the boy tried to feed the pig!
    Despite this, the great journalist does not bother to confront the mother with this finding.
    Investigative journalism at its best.
    Just awkward.
    After all, Yaron Karmi prophesied that a pig would devour a child, so if it doesn't happen, you can make it up.
    slurp

  3. Sad to hear
    that people are hurt by the pigs
    Quick Recovery
    Unfortunately today in 2021
    I live in the center of Horev, the city center
    And we are flooded with pigs at all hours of the day
    The pigs even sleep in our yard
    We seem and hear that we are talking to the wall, to the lamp,
    We are not heard
    I haven't seen or heard like the figurines. (and not speaking)
    We talk but who treats ?????????

  4. I also received an answer justifying the living of the wild boars near the neighborhoods and wandering in them, as the "original tenants" of the environment. Therefore, their caravans on the sidewalks of our streets, are seen, heard, and visible... and sometimes we also meet with us, in the "sub-tenants" on their way... they look for leftover food in the garbage cans and wherever possible. When we met them at night, it was quite scary and threatening and not pleasant at all..

  5. From the mother's story, you can write a script for "Jaws 4" and if you read the hospital's report, you realize that the cute boy just gave the pig something to eat from his hand. If he had put the food on the floor or pulled his hand a little earlier, another story at the level of a world war would not have been born.

  6. A proper journalistic headline "A boy tried to feed a pig and was bitten by it". But this title will not come up because there is a narrative against the pigs.

  7. Samson, go take care of yourself, and it was an hour before. I'm not telling you out of a bad place, really, it's obvious that you're not in the health line. Treatment or in your case hospitalization. It's not a bad word. The many responses and let's say gently - your problems, cause concern for your mental well-being.. Please, take care of yourself!!

  8. You noticed that most of the supporters of pigs are Russians!!! No wonder, those who opened supermarkets to sell pork love pigs. So every Russian family will raise a pig at home. They have a child and a dog, and now they will also have a pig. This is not Russia. This is a Jewish country. The Jews and the Arabs lived here nicely before you came.

  9. Tel Aviv: City of Lights
    Jerusalem: The Holy City
    Hai: the city of pigs.

    And thanks to Einat Higrider Kalish.
    great branding,
    You marched the city forward.

  10. The municipality in general gives rights to pigs and dogs and prefers them over children, so that dogs are allowed to dirty children's playgrounds and the slides are full of pee and if you contact the municipality there is no answer at all. Enter the Kabvir neighborhood from Kadima Street and all its streets are full of garbage in the morning, even near the kindergartens, the garbage is right at Shaar Bosha.
    I am also a green person, but being green and protecting the environment is not at the expense of humanity and certainly not at the expense of the children. You don't have to live in the green film, be green but also export.

  11. Trending article.. Why didn't you list how many dogs are quarantined every year because of bites?
    Most likely a child tried to feed the pig... and didn't keep his fingers. "By a miracle we were saved" you didn't exaggerate at all. Haha
    Go write more interesting things and don't make an elephant fly

    • Equally in favor of kicking out pit bulls and rottweilers and predatory dogs.
      It's just that the pigs also have contagious diseases that they transmit, damage to property in the gardens, dirt and filth from the garbage and fear of running into an animal weighing a hundred or so kilograms on the street. All of these do not exist among dogs.
      Therefore the comparison is simply out of place
