People in our neighborhood here (on nextdooor.com) have been reporting a couple rambling hobo potbelly pigs tearing up their gardens. No one wants to call the city because they will likely kill them so they are trying to find the owners or at least a pig wrangler who can find a place for them to live until they're re-homed. But yeah same kinda deal here.

He is at least the second member of the public to be killed by cows while dog walking this year. An 82-year-old man was trampled to death in front of his wife near Ingleton, in the Yorkshire dales, in June.
Between March 2000 and March 2020, 98 people were killed by cattle in the UK, according to the HSE. Of those, 22 were members of the public, with the rest being either farmers or farm workers. (...)
I am now keenly interested to learn how a bullet bounces of someone's face.
.25 ACP
