The Great Pig Survey
In the last few days we were exposed to the wave of spring litters and in the streets of the city you see groups of mothers and cubs. In light of the storm caused by the photos, we ask you to fill out the following survey, which will help our readers understand the public's attitudes regarding the wild pigs in the city of Haifa.
there is Choose three sentences that you identify with, from the list in front of you and then save your answer in the button below. At the end of the vote, you can see the results collected so far.

Did the article interest you?


Who are the residents here? The humans or the pigs. It seems logical to you that we go in fear. It seems logical to you that there is no solution. It is interesting that during the Yahav period we did not see them. And now Kalisz has let the pigs roam in our city.
You are definite animal haters, and everything is fabricated here, shame hahaha
The only solution to natural proliferation that also violates the ecosystem in the wadis is controlled thinning over time
I propose to destroy the Grand Canyon and return the area back to the pigs and the other animals that lived there
The handling of the pig problem should be carried out under the responsibility of other bodies such as the Nature and Parks Authority in cooperation with the municipality
With compassion, using the methods used in the world. There is no connection between feeding cats and breeding pigs. How much ignorance and cruelty there is among some people.
The survey is biased in the direction of shooting and hating cats. These are the first two options... why not solve the problem with sterilization and castration?
The problem is the destruction of the pigs' habitats. If Haifa had known how to protect the wadis and its natural forest, the pigs would not have gone far into the dangerous and unpleasant human territories.
at the disposal of nature
Keep the pigs in the pen
There is no one to turn to
Soon the citizen will have to ask (permission from the pig)
An old cliché
I didn't find anything to point to.
If you were to ask me, I would say that the pigs should be directed to a fenced reserve like wild animals, so that they don't roam the middle of the city and endanger children, residents, and drivers
We are multiplying at the highest rate in the West, and in 40 years we will double our number again - so are you surprised that we are invading the territories of other animals?
We must moderate our rate of reproduction.. encouraging 2 children per family and no more, from education to taxes and benefits.
The consequences of the population explosion are much, much worse than a few pigs roaming around the city, and this must have been dealt with yesterday.
No choice
Eliminate them, they are dangerous, they are frightening, they are destructive, Yahav would put an end to it
Finally, the municipality wakes up with its show in order to solve the problem of the piglet bringing down our beautiful city Haifa.
without any good reason.
I have long suggested moving the kingdom of pigs to Gaza.
They must have known how to solve the problem of the pig.

The problem of the pigs was caused by the Hebrew
If you don't eat them they will eat you
Pigs. Trucks should be brought to fill them with pigs and dump them near the mayor's house so that you will feel what the residents feel.
A gentle and innocent animal on whose back the humans conduct political struggles in the city.
Hals with this disdain for members of other biological species. Instead of behaving wisely and compassionately - they act like thugs with the apparent ability to decide who lives and who dies.
But then an invisible virus comes - which originates from harming the animals - and shows us what it is. Fools like us.
Ran Karmi - get a life and leave the pigs to themselves!
I think that they also have a right and deserve to live in the wild……they should be moved to its preserve. Nature …..to take care of them in their needs. And not to poison or destroy them, they are part of nature
Why dilute them?? Because we can? Why is evil a solution? Everyone wants to live. Us and yes, them too! Cliche, I would suggest neutering as they do for cats, it would be blessed and it would also be a more sane way of thinning. Put them in specific areas in the wadis where they will be given food thrown away from the market/supermarkets for example, so that we can get out of this in a fair way towards everyone. By the way, the pigs don't hurt us! It's just us in them and more afraid...
The survey will not contribute much, there is no more room for additional opinions.. A significant part of the residents of Carmel are elderly, for whom there is no consideration, there is no question that concerns this large group of people: single elderly people, or couples rarely leave the house before dark, the reason is an unexpected encounter with a herd pigs. Kindergarten on the day of the meeting is daunting. It's enough that everyone went through a very long closure in the last year, another pork closure is unnecessary. Citizens must be considered. and children. Is anyone in the municipality attentive to the plight of the pigs that exist??
It will not help to anesthetize them and move them to forests because they already know the place and will return, the only solution is to kill them
A targeted survey against the municipality
The one who is guilty is Yahav
Since the mayor of the city is against thinning and trapping, the pigs can be euthanized and moved to a remote and fenced nature reserve very far from the residents. Make sure they can't get out.
Human lives, their peace and well-being are more important than wild pigs.
yes transfer them
They must not be killed
Ltd. with high importance for nature.
In my opinion, they should be fenced in any area in the wadi or any other place. Take care of food for them and thus peace will come as it is said that a wolf dwells with a lamb.
She is neither in heaven nor far from him.
A wild boar, like any wild animal, belongs in the wild and not near human habitation.
That is, if man does not insert his finger deep into the natural location of wild animals, they will not insert themselves into a place where humans live (for example, in Haifa, areas of forests, groves and other greedy habitats are slowly running out, due to human invasion of these places (all for the sake of real estate)
The pigs symbolize Haifa. They must be put on top of our happiness. and on the city flag.
this problem had to be addressed long ago, the mayor and her city hall members were waiting too long, the more they wait the harder it will get, they have to find a solution, one way or another, people pay taxes and they are supposed to live in security and enjoy their lives when those wild pigs would not find food their behavior will change and they might become dangerous.
If the pigs were aggressive towards humans, we would count tens... if not hundreds of cases of human attacks. That is not the case. They are indifferent to humans.
3 injuries were so far unrelated to wild boar aggression.
A child whose fingers were bitten... (=feeding that didn't work, don't feed them, dammit).
A girl in Ramat Begin who was injured because she was frightened by a pig and fell
And a woman on a wadi trip who collided with a pig.
They should be kept away from the neighborhoods of the city, but from here to saying that they are dangerous... is nonsense
There are residents in Haifa whose countries of origin are in Northern Europe and Eastern Europe - for whom pigs are no stranger and were part of their diet.
What is it to us that we will complain about them?
After all, they or their descendants are eager to discover Europe.
On behalf of all the residents of the city, I allow myself to inform all the leadership of the Haifa municipality that you are tired of all of us, and you deserve to carry the flag of our beautiful and very special city! Until today you have proven to all of us that you are helpless in multiple issues that had to receive your care and unfortunately we have not seen any improvement, even when the corona epidemic was taken into account.
Probably many of the residents of the city who elected you at the time, today and after a picture of the state of the city, it is clear to all of us that no one will be able to remember you well, and next time we will make sure that a city leader like you is not elected.
It doesn't matter who is to blame. The fact is that we are afraid on a daily basis to take the dog for a walk in the neighborhood. That's the bottom line. A serious injury to my personal security and quality of life. The city address and high property tax finance.
The residents of Haifa in the estate area should stop paying property taxes until the municipality restores their safety and the safety of their children to simply walk the streets of the neighborhood!!!! The issue of thinning the wild boars had to be addressed a long time ago
How bad you are
In the picture I liked the passengers on bicycles, it's time for the municipality to invest in bicycle lanes, like in Europe, I saw in the article about Sweden, from today. All cities in Europe are identified with bicycles. No wonder you can see the great races of every country on TV. A city without bicycle lanes and ready infrastructure is not A city accessible to children, family outings in nature, and people who do not own a private car.
Regarding the pigs: I live in the center of Carmel, I don't feel them. They cause little damage. Kudos to the mayor who doesn't listen to all the noise that is interested in killing such good animals.
Unfortunately, the pig culture is similar to the baboon culture, and on the other hand Zilgmore...
Killing and thinning solves nothing! This has been done before and didn't help. The pigs don't just attack people in the street, leave them alone! A little compassion wouldn't hurt...
The questionnaire is trending, not objective...
I'm sorry that people also think on this issue that everything is solved with violence
The solution is so simple that any biologist, like me, would suggest it. First, the pigs must be provided five times a week with food (organic remains) from all the residents of Haifa in a certain place, with human pills against pregnancy. will concentrate on eating her name regularly.
The pills: preventing pregnancy and childbirth.
The food in a certain place is fixed: the concentration of all the wild boars in one place.
within three months and if the plan is respected. The females will no longer become pregnant, the males due to the excess of progesterone will not provide enough sperm in the ovaries to get you pregnant.
For a long time: there will not be a natural number of future generations, but how many will succeed in spawning anyway, depending on the level of fertility.
This is a solution that requires the cooperation of the residents and the municipality together.
Procedure: Residents should be asked to separate any organic food in designated bags.
The municipality: it must provide municipal collection in the city streets and the supply of food for pigs in the wild.
The municipality can only provide garbage cans for organic waste and the residents will separate at home what is intended for wild pigs.
An ecological, economical, smart, universal and harmonious solution.
In my opinion, the number of pigs in the last decade has increased unusually as a former municipal employee, the only culprits for the situation we have reached are the residents and despite everything, the only solution is to capture them and move them to the Lower Galilee and also to the Upper Galilee or the Golan Heights area, the new generation is encouraged to persevere in thinning and this will reduce the damage the pigs do Good luck to you
How much evil and ignorance there is in man
The perfect solution for you is to simply shoot to kill and then put on a tefillin, observe Yom Kippur, no wonder we got corona, it's a holocaust, what are we doing to the animals
They should be killed because they are of no use.
The pig problem should have been treated humanely and with compassion before the Grand Canyon was built. The pigs were there from time immemorial before the establishment of the Haifa municipality.
Heartless and inconsiderate. The issue was aggravated when we built the heroes road!!!
Instead of taking care of a designated area for wild pigs, they sent them independently to the city itself. Hai Bar or a segment on the Green Mountain in collaboration with Hai Bar would help the pigs and the residents, but thinking is not the forte of the municipality's people
They don't solve a problem with murder, killing and thinning!!!!!
Extermination and sterilization
Bins are in the ground and inside a tall building like in other municipalities. In Afula in Holon while municipalities use bins that animals cannot reach or turn over. This is the solution. And also that there will not be any small bins in the Ciberian gardens either, only built-in bins.
The pigs are the living proof of the mistake of the residents who elected a mayor who does not care about them at all. Her choice is our failure
Cliché, wake up, you've played with us enough, you can't solve the problem, give your place to someone who can
Shame and failure in the treatment of the municipality and its head regarding the wild pigs that have taken over the city
