Ok, time for a silly question.
Since I'm from NY, the thought of danger in the woods from animal attack isn't a real concern usually. Well, you might run into a black bear, but that's few & far in between, and never really a concern in the back of your mind, and they usually run away anyway. I'll leave snakes out of this for now.
But I keep reading on this forum about hogs & how dangerous they are & how they charge people all the time...
Being from NY, we don't have wild hogs here, so this is just shocking to me...
Are you guys saying that there are some parts of the country where everytime you go for a walk in the woods you run the risk of getting attacked by wild hogs? How often does this happen? How serious of a problem is it? Like, an everyday thing, or few & far between like a bear mauling?
This is wild stuff...
Thanks
