Apparently there are now (or always have been, I don’t know) feral hogs roaming White Rock Lake. One was actually sighted near Lawther and Northwest Highway recently.
Fact: Feral hogs are hairy. Another fact: I once copy edited a story where the writer kept referring to Farrell Hogs. It took me most of the article to figure out it wasn’t a person. Context is your friend.
And another fact, just because I adore linking to this because of the last paragraph: If a feral hog and a coyote faced off, don’t necessarily put your money on the coyote.

I like the word Ferel. It sounds like the name of a fashion designer you might hear on a red carpet event.
OK, so we know that a feral hog can finish off a coyote. We also know that a properly-armed-for-jogging Rick Perry can also dispatch a coyote.
But do we know who would prevail between Rick Perry and a feral hog? I for one would love to see that.
