If you honestly believe hogs are destroying the environment in Texas, I don’t know what to tell you. It’s about as hyperbolic as it gets.
Do you honestly believe that hogs are destroying the environment of Texas?

If so, then I guess we have different definitions of “destroying the environment.” Some damaged farmland, a few possible fishkills, and some erosion are blips on the radar compared to the damage done by industrial farming, suburban sprawl, oil companies, etc.

I guess it is nice to have a scapegoat though — or in this case a scape-hog.
