Did they eat the brain?

Gee you lot would get on well with Mrs Gadget. Always asking the impossible question form someone who has no knowledge in the subject.

Just quietly, my money is on aliens.

The dam pig was probably radio active, strdiom 90, all that dust form chinoble , that place in russuer ummm. Any way I hope the poor buggers get better so they came enjoy life in good old N Z.

Not something I've herd of ,but interesting enough not many dogs (with exception to Labs) will eat fresh wild pork . Freeze it or cook it they will .

Smart dogs labs, and if a lab dosen't want it it really must be something to avoid!

You could bet your house on it . . . And win.

Not a chance mate.....they would have to eat kgs of it neat to be poisoned.....

If it was 1080, then there would have been and there will be more cases . But this one seems to be a first.
I wonder if they consumed the liver of the pig?
And yes, in france for exemple, any wild bore meat is kept in the freezer for a few months before consumption to kill some parasite present in the meat I believe.

I just asked a mate in france, and the parasite is the trichinosis.

After reading the above article, it does not seems to be that , but it is still interesting to read.

Gibo.. you been on the porangi waipiro AGAIN.....
