Aggressive hybrid boar-pigs in Kirov Oblast have been terrorizing several villages, attacking children, damaging crops, causing traffic accidents, and evading capture despite being kept in a poorly secured pen. Authorities have issued hunting licenses, but efforts to apprehend the animals have so far failed.
