(Haipo) – For a large part of the residents of the city of Haifa, the pigs long ago became a problem or a negative and living phenomenon that causes them disgust, fear and disgust. At the same time, there is a significant part that opposes the catalog of the pig as a scary, disgusting or aggressive animal. This objection comes first from investigating the subject and love for animals.
The pig phenomenon in Haifa
The wild boar's distribution has changed radically in recent years due to both human activity and climate change. In Haifa the phenomenon has increased and become more severe and wild boars roam the streets of the city. A similar phenomenon exists in Rome, Italy and other cities in the world. The phenomenon in Haifa bothered and continues to bother a large public of residents who demand a solution at any cost, even if it involves killing the pigs.
The residents came to this conclusion after the efforts of the outgoing mayor Einat Kalish, who tried to deal with the phenomenon in other and humane ways, although she also "sedated" some of them. Along with the group of residents who support thinning and treatment in any way, the main thing is to eradicate the phenomenon, there is another group that strongly opposes harming wild boars and claims that thinning is murder and slaughter of an animal that does not threaten humans. According to them, the media also misleads the public and sows terror when it presents the pig as a scary and aggressive animal that attacks and injures people.
Debi Segal, a Haifaite who is an activist for animal rights and finding humane solutions for pigs, says in an interview with Lahi Fe that she is tired of constantly hearing and reading in the media about cruel ways to thin the pigs such as murder and slaughter. Debbie offers humane and possible solutions whose costs are even cheaper than thinning and explains that thinning harms the ecological system that is important to the earth and to us humans.
- Strong fences by environmental products that do not harm animals and the environment or soil - this is a product that prevents pigs from reaching gardens or a certain environment at a cost of NIS 270.
- Flakes - there is another product made from plants which comes in the form of flakes and its feeding instructions are easy. The flakes cause damage to the mucous membrane and because pigs have a sharp memory they will be careful next time and remember that they should not come to that place.
- Solar repulsion system - which makes sounds of dogs or 'transistor' ultrasolars at a one-time cost. The pigs remember the sounds and act according to the memory.
- A whistle - the pigs hear its sound because the pig perceives and hears louder at a cost of 10 shekels.
- Loud scare equipment - a system that activates censored lights.
Debi also adds and shares with us a discovery found in a study conducted by a lecturer who, together with two students, came up with a significant gimmick. In the study they divided Kiryat Tivon into two parts and in one part they created mud pits. In the study, it was evident that the pig is an active animal and the pigs spent hours in the pits.
Thus they found that the pigs like to have fun and play in the mud, more than looking for food. If it were possible to develop such pits, the pigs would be there and not on the streets. It is also possible to act like Bansher and Tivon who decided to bury the bins and fix them so that the pig cannot turn the bin over.
On the other hand, the costs of running hunters are crazy. This is alongside the shooting conditions and the law that prohibits shooting at a distance of 500 meters in a built-up area (unfortunately this happened and even hurt people).
That is why it is important to educate the public not to throw garbage. The pigs don't just come to eat - they also feed on insects, worms and more and even taste carcasses and can do amazing ecological work.
The thing that most angers Debbie and many others is the use of words that cause panic among the public such as attacking a pig or a person is injured as a result of being hit by a pig. This is because at the end of the day the cause of injury is usually fear and not a direct attack. This is how she says: "The presentation of the pig in a negative light bothers me and it bothers me that an animal is killed." It is not enough for us that people hurt each other, I want them to show compassion towards an animal whose only desire is to have fun and eat.
Following the story of the boy who fell and broke his collarbone - in reality the boy slipped and the damage was caused by the impact of the fall and not by the attack of the pig. We believe that the media is misleading about the pigs and the question is why treat this animal specifically? It's all about knowledge. The public needs to be educated and taught that if you see a pig it won't hurt you, and you don't need to kill if solutions can be found.'
"In addition, we need to change the discourse whose essence is that a pig is an animal that needs to be killed." The media should delve deeper into the issue and present the truth. A slaughter of 1600 pigs has already been carried out and I want to prevent the continuation of the slaughter because no one has the right to take their own life. We want to prevent animals from disappearing from the wild.'
Lion, bear and wolf are not just names of humans, they are prey animals that will be happy together with birds of prey and other predators in zoos and nature to devour the meat of the hunted pigs.
I love animals too! I have a dog and 3 cats at home
But it's at home! And not in the street they hurt humanity with their pollution and diseases
Do you have a better solution? The streets are filled with them.
It is forbidden to kill, it is a terrible sin, they have a meaning, they are not just here, so that we know how to not be cowards and heroes, and more, look and learn
Remove the word from the dictionary:
hot dog
They will start to thin out pigs, they will switch to cats and dogs, enough to be potential killers,
No to killing animals and enough lies in the damned media there are other cheaper solutions that can be implemented so stop fucking smart and start acting without murdering
Haifa should be reduced and brought back to its size in the 1960s and 1970s, then the phenomenon of pigs will cease to exist, which means the pigs will be happy to live in the new neighborhoods we built at their expense!!!🥸
I don't know how to respond to your comment. Absolute absurdity
Those opposed to thinning are invited to raise the pigs at home.
Don't forget that your house was built on an area where there were pigs and other animals and also a forest that destroyed everything for the benefit of the "good" people.
Excellent! How can you help Debbie?
Is thinning mosquitoes also murder?
It is mandatory to destroy the wild pigs that roam the city, and you are fans of the wild pigs, I suggest that you go to psychological therapy where you will understand that human life and the people of Haifa come before the wild pigs, before Haifa and its residents, pigs that enter the city will be destroyed
You need psychological treatment. Humans are more dangerous than pigs
The answer I gave to Zionist is also good for you and many others.
Wild boar fans, change a diskette, go to the woods and take care of the pigs, don't be good at our expense, pigs that enter the city will be thinned, every pig that walks around will be thinned, I suggest you be good at your own expense, help the pigs camping in the woods, be good to the townspeople, be good to the pigs in the forests and at your expense.
Definitely agree. A humble request, don't be presumptuous, write יהוס לו instead of the milky word ידולו.
The best thing that happened in the elections is that you are diluted from the council.
Human waste is tasty for pigs and it is always accessible and cheaper than flakes.
NIS 270 for a carrot? May I have the supplier please? Today the price of a fence, as you mentioned, is NIS 700 per meter. And to surround an entire building is several thousand shekels if not five figures. Even with the subsidy it didn't pay off. Apparently the opponents are also disconnected from the price for fencing.. let them take the pigs home like a cliché for the house if they love them so much
Whoever loves pigs will take them home.
and not in the public domain.
There is no reason for the residents to adjust themselves here to living alongside the pigs and find workarounds... we have lived here for a whole life without seeing a single pig and that is how we want to continue living here. And if the way to solve it is to eliminate them, then that should be the solution. That's what there is. It's not a curse from heaven that you have to get used to.
Fear or not, in the end it is an injury that sometimes requires hospitalization and a prolonged recovery like what happened to my neighbor.
As for the proposed solutions like the flakes even if true they will find another place.
Load them and go to Gaza
A great idea to load them up and transport them to Gaza and put them in the tunnels that way maybe the pigs will find Sinwar and the Gazans will get out of the tunnels or put the wild pigs in the tunnels with explosives that will float inside them and explode there
You are welcome to be loaded there as well
They are causing irreparable damage to the residents of Haifa Nesher and the surrounding area.
Urgent treatment is needed to eradicate the phenomenon
I live in Kiryat. Just a guest in Haifa but in two of my random visits to Hantaka Street I found myself running and escaping from big and scary pigs. In one of the cases I also fell and was injured while running. Perhaps the complaining lady prefers the welfare of the pigs over the right to walk down the street without being afraid, without running away, without finding out that you are facing an angry pig in a dead end between a line of parked cars, a container and a fence (which happened to me). All over the world animal populations are being thinned, sterilized, moved to other areas. A city is not a safari. Those who feel sorry for pigs do not feel sorry for kindergarten children, nor for the elderly, nor for mothers with prams, nor for anyone but the pigs themselves.
exactly like that
The only ones who have duties and rights are humans. There is no living. their organization. It is based on existential urges, regardless of any rights or obligations. Their way of life is what matters, and it has always been so. Those who decided to grant them rights are some confused people who did not ask the animals what they prefer
It's not fun to leave the house and run into a band like that. Quite scary but there is another and no less serious problem! Recently, the jackals are also multiplying a lot, coming out of the wadis into the areas of the houses. With us they fight and scream under the window! Afraid to go out!!
To all the beautiful of the soul I say only this, stand up
Private pen for the pigs
Keep them, grow them all you see fit
Not like that, free in the city attacking children
and teenagers and the elderly and basically a wave of those who move
Going for two.
Someone once said…..let's load them on trucks and drop them off in Gaza, great idea!!!!!
Those who oppose the thinning of the pigs are invited to gather them all to his yard and fence them. Enough damage has been caused to us in the last 5 years!
There is no solution for the pig. There are two options 1. On the grill 2. Eliminate solutions we have seen for 5 years. The situation is scary to walk in the streets. People are attacked just yesterday a two-year-old boy was attacked. He who is not good for him should raise them in his home. Or buy a farm and raise them there.
All the tender souls are satisfied

The wild boar doesn't taste good on the grill hahahaha If there was, the problem would be solved quickly and people would have a lot of meat in the freezer
I suggest to the honorable Ms. Debi to implement all her delusional suggestions in the neighborhood / street where she lives.
You are absolutely right. to fence them around her house. It doesn't happen like heat if they are put to sleep and some will be sent to Gaza. They will be better off there
Want a clean and beautiful sink
Stop building new neighborhoods and the phenomenon will fade.
Just what, the population is growing and needs places to live.
