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.

The Bnei Zion Medical Center informed Lahi Fe:
Yesterday evening, an 11-year-old boy from Haifa arrived at the children's emergency room at Bnei Zion Medical Center, who was scratched/bitten on his hand by a wild boar while trying to feed him. The boy is in a mild condition, received a rabies vaccine and antibiotic treatment according to the advice of the health bureau and was released home.
The Ministry of Health informed Lahi Pa:
The response of the Ministry of Health regarding special instructions following the child's bite.


I was present during those hours in the kindergarten, I saw a child teasing a pig, if it is the same event, no wonder we were bitten.
The lying mother claims that "he was bitten for an unknown reason", but from the hospital report, the reason is definitely known - the boy tried to feed the pig.
The only fault is the mother. It is such criminal behavior of feeding pigs that causes problems. Instead of a morbid demand for the murder of living creatures, we should invest in education and information on how to behave with wild animals (and animals in general) and punish those who feed wild animals or harm them in any way.

Blas is scrambling for the pigs' blood! Shame on Likud!!!!
Shame on you, it's about human lives, hazards, damages that are caused to the residents of the city, and you're messing around with vote-getters,? Shameless and disrespectful to the public, and moreover irresponsible, you will realize your desire to take care of pigs and raise them in your home, do not trust us.
Shame on you, it's about human lives, hazards, damages that are caused to the residents of the city, and you're messing around with vote-getters,? Shameless and disrespectful to the public, and moreover irresponsible, realize your desire to take care of pigs and raise them in your home, don't force your will on us.
Blas came out of the lair…..
This is what happens when you put the good of the pigs before the good of the people.
They give the impression in the municipality that this is a wild animal that can also be a pet. Innocent children believe this and are not afraid of this dirty wild beast.
The danger here is rabies, tetanus or infection from the bite.
Of course, even the vaccines that protect against all of these have dangers as with any medicine or any medical procedure.
I would sue the municipality for the actual damages, the trauma and the danger that the innocent child faced, for the fact that the municipality tries to protect the wild boars with such determination through committees and discussions, signs and publications that after a disaster turn out to be false.
Complete medicine for the child.
When was the last time you went to the city kennel and saw how many dogs are quarantined there because of bites.. I don't see that you are really complaining about it. The main dirty ones are the humans
No. This is what happens, sometimes, when a small child tries to feed a big pig and pushes his hand with the food into his mouth... it's an "accident" and not an "assault"...
Yitzhak Blas is right.
There is a repetition of a false mantra that the dilution has not succeeded. he succeeded. The pigs multiplied starting at the end of 2018 in light of a complete stop of the thinning. Until then it was not such a serious nuisance and the thinning was successful and maybe once every two or three weeks there was a report at night that a wild boar was seen here and there. They certainly didn't turn over bins or walk around the gardens.
The time has come to thin out immediately, and if the municipality refuses to sign a petition by council members to the Ministry of Internal Security and Environmental Protection to immediately thin out the wild boars because of the damage to the balance of nature and the lives of the residents
From an inspection I conducted, it became clear that the municipality operated with appropriate permits from the Ministry of Internal Security, from the National Security Agency, and from the police to carry out the thinning that was stopped two years ago.
The advisors around you Madam Mayor love animals and that is fine, but they should not forget that the humans who are the legal residents of the city must also be taken into account, in 2018 approximately 450 pigs were thinned to allow a tolerable situation from this point of view. The writing is written on the wall, our lives, our property, in your hands Madam Mayor, the responsibility is yours, and don't pass the responsibility away from you.
Yitzhak Blas
City council member
On behalf of Likud
Absolutely right
It's a shame that there is no "non-training" in the leadership of a city
Blass is already fed up...
Throw the cliché with the pigs in the south and immediately!!!!
There is a big difference between a bite "for an unknown reason" and "while trying to feed him" as written in Bnei Zion's response. This is no longer a deliberate attack as written here. Of course, an unfortunate and dangerous case, but one must be precise
The boy tried to feed the pig and got scratched by his tooth... what's the hysteria?
Madam Mayor, peace and blessings
I'll start with the law that states that human life comes before everything, that's how the owner behaves and in any case, laws can be changed from year to year when it's necessary to protect human life, and since the problem has become a national problem, albeit in the north, but national, we must turn to the central government to help solve the problem, it's no longer a game And playing with a loaded gun is not child's play, it's just like that, a loaded gun roaming the streets and no one knows when the bullet will go off, as the mayor of a city that bears responsibility, and the responsibility is very heavy, you must act and do action, words, words, there is nothing in them, action, action must be taken We are already after the 90th minute, soon we will be living with the pigs and not them with us as it is happening today, we expect you to take action, take the wheel with concern for the public in your hands.
Yitzhak Blas
Haifa City Council member
I would love to be in touch with you,
Communicate to the public
Such and similar cases on Facebook
My address: Yitzhak Blas (Itzik)
I propose to claim compensation both from the municipality and from Klish personally
What a left-wing approach, omitting inconvenient details... The mother says the pig attacked for an unknown reason. The doctor said the boy went to feed the pig.
The mother lies to strengthen her position.
And he was also slightly injured, meaning the pig gently bit just to warn, the pathetic mother credits the child with the minor injury, come on.
And if you didn't build on every meter maybe the pigs would have an unbuilt area to roam. When you invade the forest to build a house there, everything is fine, right? But making assumptions is not allowed to invade you
The pig probably did not "bite to warn" but simply enthusiastically ate what the boy pushed into his mouth, and the boy was bitten unintentionally...
And by the way, I vote for the left (because I don't want the right to annex another 2.6 million Palestinians to the state)...
The mother is hysterical and lying, the hospital report says scratched/bitten, which means the wound is probably superficial, also the child went to feed the pig, so come on, calm down all of you, all the naysayers and check and see that supposedly dogs are much more dangerous in terms of the amount of bites and injuries, no one suggests kill dogs, right?
It's a shame they don't write in the title that the boy tried to feed the pig from his hand. You have to dig down to find it.
The story is not "shocking" - even the mother is not as angry as the reporter. Animals don't just attack (unlike humans), but a wild animal is not a pet. Again and again they explain: do not approach, do not feed, and it gives the impression that this is not exactly the precaution taken here. If the pig wanted, the boy would have no fingers left. But that's not what happened here. There is no doubt that the problem of wild boars needs to be solved, but presenting them as monsters, or alternatively, as gentle kittens, does not help. And certainly not to hurt them!
And by the way, I was bitten by a domestic dog, which tore up my face, and sent me to the hospital for 4 days and a lot of stitches. Why? Because I entered her personal space and disturbed her, and this without knowing her well enough
People, take responsibility!!!
All the problems in the city have been solved??? The pigs are the problem??? A false article of a poor level that is suitable for this site
I wouldn't be surprised if the boy "bite" the pig.
You hypocrites are tired. The pigs are more important than the citizens. So why don't you charge them a property tax for using the public parks.
Shoot the pigs without counting and tell Kalish that she can live with them in the grove
I was bitten by a Bordeaux dog. Freed from the leash of his owner. Deep wounds and infection with long recovery. Why isn't there so much fuss about it?
I bet the boy reached for the pig.
I hunt pigs every day. are not dangerous and not aggressive.
I recognize that this is a serious problem, but we are in the process of solving the problem and the residents are an important part of the equation - garbage, feeding cats and pigs and more.
From the medical report: "scratched from a tooth / bitten..." so even on the level of biting a finger there is nothing here.
Why sow panic in the public, a panic that has proven itself only for bad places like:
running away resulting in falls and injuries
Killing her helpless life, one of the least aggressive animals in nature.
So communication: take some responsibility. Stop using words like "the shocking story" and stick to the facts.
When I was a child I fed a zebra at the zoo the zebra bit the parsley and one of its teeth touched my hand and scratched my hand. I think this is what happened here the child fed the pig and a tooth touched it while feeding if the pig had really attacked the child or bitten the child would not have had the hand of hysteria In my opinion, an article designed to sue the Haifa municipality is unnecessary. At the end of the article, the hospital writes what really happened there
Kalish has forgotten who her client is and who she works for
You work for the residents, Mrs. Kalish
And if you are not able to understand and accept it
Resign, and as you say, I don't care what you do, your job is to find a way to deal with the pig problem in Haifa
It's amazing that a city that has been sitting for decades on top of the polluting and carcinogenic industries of the bay, is bothered by some lovable wild animals that are just trying to survive after their habitats were reduced to zero. What is really dangerous for the residents of Haifa is the pigs?! How many people were killed, or even injured, returns, and how many were killed or injured from road accidents, murder, acts of violence or from diseases as a result of air pollution, etc.?! It is always easiest to take care of the weak who cannot defend themselves. Wow, a boy got scratched by a pig, don't play with the pigs and don't feed them so no one gets hurt. How much evil and primitiveness there is here. Did you even get the Holocaust in here?! be ashamed
Shay words, smart people argue with the weak. It's good that there are people here, people with a heart and logic and not just hysterical blabbermouths who believe the demagogic articles against the pigs, the mayor, etc.
A false article about pigs like all the articles of the cowardly website owner.
A wild boar does not attack.
The boy must have teased the pig.
The whole pig thing stems from political wars against our powerful mayor
The municipality will do nothing until it ends in disaster. That's how it works unfortunately.
Is there any logical reason in the mother's mind why she allowed her child to put his hand in the pig's mouth? How exactly did she think it would end? Even if it was a dog, he would have bitten and I'm pretty sure that even much more serious...
The time has really come for the mayor of Haifa to take the initiative and transfer the pigs to the wild. They don't have to walk around the neighborhoods.
This is a fake article..
where are pictures
There should be evidence
Do not believe . Sounds unbelievable at all.
I have and have nothing against wild boars...any wild boar enthusiast who grows in his home..as the name suggests, and if man is pushing it out of its natural place (by construction and development), then it is time for man (ie the municipality of Haifa) to collect and raise them in a residential area behind a high fence. And provide him with what is necessary for his sustenance and his descendants... and not every time when you call the hotline the laconic answer is that they are protected animals.
The boy had food in his hand.. or tried to feed the pig...
He is used to children, they must feed him.
"Horrifying attack" come on... enough with the intimidation and delegitimization...
I was at the base with wild boars, they weren't very nice, a wild boar is dangerous and has nothing to do in the city period. I love animals very much, I used to rescue animals when I was little and to this day I really, really love animals but when it comes to children it's a different story a wild boar does not belong in the city and in neighborhoods wolves jackals foxes also on the same principle they should not hang around among us at all.
Why isn't it written that the boy went to pet the pig?!! The pig didn't come to him to attack him, but the boy approached him to touch him and it startled him and here's the result! A wild boar does not attack if it does not feel danger! The pair of pigs found in the neighborhood is the result of the killing of the valiaris that were practiced years ago. They were puppies when they shot their mother and that's why they got so attached to people and didn't learn to be afraid of them....
What does it matter if they tell you that a pig does nothing, so what's the problem with petting it?
My name is Hila Misfat forty years ago I lived in Ramot Naftali
I went to the sea for a walk on Saturday, I went on foot and moved a little away from the settlement
Suddenly at noon today I noticed a pig that survived me I was scared 20 years old I ran home and brought religion after me and made noises to this day I remember it as if it was yesterday so whoever was not in such a situation please don't judge anyone
to vibrate completely
Want to see cameras from the area, everything described in the article does not fit the behavior of a pig, how did his hand accidentally reach the mouth of a pig???
This is just too much. Someone paid a lady to incite against wild boars. I wouldn't be surprised if we even got bitten by a dog.
Or did they try to hurt the pig like there are mothers wailing that the cat in the street attacked the child, only they don't say that before their child kicked him and threw stones
He fed the pig from the hand. But it's written only at the end so most people didn't know what really happened.
This is very true, they even entered the field and uprooted non-attacking elk trees. What are pets? Hahahahaha drug them and immediately kill them without thinking twice. If there is no me, who do I have?
Maybe we'll kill you?!, Enough with the hatred for nature and animals!!, Stop harassing and abusing them, they won't attack you!!, Wild animals don't attack, that's the last thing they'll do, they prefer to run away to survive, they attack as a last resort when they feel threatened Or they have no way to escape, the children apparently bullied him and therefore he attacked to escape!!, and the last thing is for a child to tell the truth: "Yes, I bullied the pig and he attacked back..."!
Shame on Samson! Aliya from Russia is more effective than other aliya, you are really an ignorant racist.
It is not possible for wild boars to roam freely in the city! They multiply quickly and in the wild they don't have enough food or space, a suggestion for you - make a pen for pigs in your yard and raise them for your pleasure, it's interesting that the ultra-Orthodox are silent, because Haifa is no longer kosher, - from a former veteran hunter.
You're a real idiot, Hony, maybe we'll drug you and kill you?
The boy and his friends must have bullied the pigs. There is no smoke without fire, anyone who tries to attack an animal deserves punishment. point
Why isn't it written that the boy went to pet the pig?!! The pig didn't come to him to attack him, but the boy approached him to touch him and it startled him and here's the result! A wild boar does not attack if it does not feel danger! The pair of pigs found in the neighborhood is the result of the killing of the valiaris that were practiced years ago. They were puppies when they shot their mother and that's why they got so attached to people and didn't learn to be afraid of them....
Dogs and cats also bite.
There is no such thing as Vardia and you are not Vardia
The name of the neighborhood is Vardia.
Besides Corona and wild boars and corruption there is a plague of adding V and V to every word in the Hebrew language.
Regarding the wild boars, the situation is out of control and the excess breeding is harming the wild boars and the residents. The most humane thing is controlled thinning.
It could be that the boy was teasing him and that's why the pig bit.
If indeed so the child received a dose. And rightly so.
Oh..what a stupid response!!!
Pigs don't just bite, apparently the boy was teasing him and the pig reacted defensively. A bad article written in order to provoke unnecessary hysteria about a lovable and charming animal that Haifa people have lived next to for years. Educate your children to love animals, I promise no animal will bite them 🙂
I was also approached by a pig because he thought I had food in my hand and I got a bite.. it's not out of aggression.
The pig must have thought the boy had food.
No pig transmits rabies! Enough with the hysteria!
An animal trapped between fences and still hungry can be dangerous.
In the title it should be written in Vardia neighborhood and not in Vardia neighborhood!
At the top of the word is always one hook: menstruation, curtain, villa...
There are always two commas in the middle of a word: Tswaa, Shaveh, Rava, Neve.... All this in full spelling, i.e. spelling without punctuation.
Thanks
There is a word with 4 hooks at the beginning: "Whoah"
Meaning - and his hook...
And how do you spell Welia?
True, but this is a neighborhood named after the Arab settlement that was there, called Ya Wardi, and therefore it is called Wardia?
Pigs were poisoned by the eagle. idiots Dogs and cats can die. Sue won't slow down. It is evil and cruelty. Criminals live in Nasher. ignorant
The article smells of lies.
We need to check the evidence of other children being assaulted.
A motive for false articles? Not missing
There used to be an immigration from Russia, today there is an immigration of pigs. Do you see a difference?
Your reference to Aliya from Russia is really ugly and I think a big apology is required here ❗❗
I am very surprised by those responsible for the comments
who made it possible to publish such an article.
Big shame to the writer of the comment and its publishers.
According to the hospital's response, the child tried to feed the pig and was bitten/scratched on the hand. Apparently that's where a claim is made from the elephant ant. Why feed a wild boar?
Certainly, there is a difference between this comment and common sense.
Lord Samson. One should not be carried away by such statements. There is a limit to how low you can go. I am surprised that the system suppressed this offensive response. your.
Slowly. more worthwhile.
False article!!!!! It's all stinking politics!
Until the wild boars bite Mrs. Kalish and her other members of the city council, nothing will be done. Except for money and honor, they are not interested in anything. Shame and disgrace. Keep going to vote.
Wow, how right you are
More fiction stories, a pig never attacks liars!!!! The greens continue the incitement
Pigs don't bite???!!! Hahahahaha!! They don't just bite, males with their fangs can tear a human to pieces! And if you touch their toys, it doesn't end well. It's impossible to run away from them. They run 40 kilometers. It's better to go up to a high place, a tree for example.. Hitting it is not effective at all. Only a ball can help. And not one. It's a very strong life.
The pigs do attack. As they multiply and gain confidence, they will attack more. The pig is a wild animal and has its own place in nature. I suggest reserving a place in the city council also for a pig to represent the lovers of the needy
.
Wild boars are attacking, talk about a wild boar being more dangerous than a dog, I saw with my own eyes on the northern border, pigs attacking where we shot them, it should also be done in Haife, when a child is killed, only then will they do something
The honorable Mrs. Kalish, my mother is an 85-year-old Holocaust survivor, lives in the center of Carmel. She is afraid to leave her house! Why? Because of the pigs. Find the way and restore security to the residents of Haifa. The situation here is impossible.
Residents of the city of Haifa, have mercy on a mayor who behaves like a pig, and this may explain her ignoring the protest of the frightened and rightly so residents of Carmel.
Hope that on one of the tours she doesn't do on the spot some pigs will jump on her and she will experience trauma.
What poor people who are stuck with a mayor like they have. hahahahahahahaha
I wonder why everything is so obvious but it is not clear how the boy's hands got to the pig's mouth, my guess is that the boy fed him to fight back instead of food. Yes - it's a strong animal, but aggressive? Really really not. And like anything else they are dangerous if you are not careful. Children should not play with them, feed them or chase them like I see them doing in the parks they come across. I would recommend that instead of being keyboard heroes and getting dirty, take some personal responsibility - pay attention to which areas the pigs come from and contact the municipality asking them to fence the area properly, make sure not to throw edible garbage outside the bins - they have their territory and the humans their territory.
❤? You're absolutely right,
you are right Surely the child ate. It said it was the neighborhood pig. Also don't touch every puppy or cat you see.
bullshit. Ok chased a pig and tried to attack me when I'm in advanced pregnancy. wake up
Bring back hunters and Yona Yahav!!!
