Filthy Animals Defacing Cologne Cemetery

But then people would be eating boar meat that had been fattened by worm meat that had been fattened by corpse meat.
Why can't they find good sources of protein in the woods?
If they're concerned with them invading cemeteries for food... then why don't they try feeding them?
I'm sure the boars are plentiful, but they're wasting all this time, all these resources, banding together to fend off hungry pigs. Perhaps they could try making the pigs not hungry, if they are sufficiently worried.

True. They're feeding anyway, though. They're just not eating what they want them to be eating. I suppose the electric fence might be a decent course of action.
Still, I've raised pigs on a farm before, they'll eat pretty much anything. Considering how much food is thrown out and wasted, might as well make use of it. Minimize wasted resources, rather than wasting more resources.
Although, time is of course a valuable resource, and this would be a more time-confusing venture than building a fence.Oh well. *shrugs* More important matters in the world than pigs and worms, although strangely I found the article and the responses to it mildly amusing.

The issue is land encroachment and landscaping which is a haven for worms and grubs, combined with the fact that pigs like grass.
A cemetery is like a tempting buffet and salad bar to wild pigs. They also like golf courses.
Can't say I blame them, honestly. If I were a pig I'd probably be feasting on the grass and cadaver-worms (especially given the land encroachment, as you mentioned).
Yeah to them it's just a place to get a nutritious meal. They don't care that somebody "owns" it. lol the nerve of them right?
Can’t they get a pack of big ass dogs or an electric wire around the place?
Seems like it wouldn’t be too difficult to solve .
Just saying…my brother has a dog in Hawaii that kills wild boar all the time…some big ones too…he drags them back home to my brother hahaha.

As long as they made use of any boars killed. Otherwise it'd be a shame and wasteful. :[
Boar bacon and all that.
I was just checking and pigs' hearing range goes up to about 40,000Hz; whereas humans only go to 23,000Hz.
Loud ultrasonics could help, but would drive dogs insane, whose hearing extends to 45,000Hz. Perhaps speakers could be targeted into the woods, so that the vegetation limits some of the distance the sound travels at volume.

Speaking of dogs, we see where people walking their dogs at one of the cemeteries we go to let their dogs poop on gravestones and where people walk. I own a large dog, but can have him defecate elsewhere. Some of these folk live nearby and walk their dogs there all the time.
Pigs are a nuisance, but are somewhat natural. Humans that allow their dogs to deface gravestones should let me allow my large dog to deface them. They should not be allowed. The pigs could be professionally and systematically thinned and they would leave if they lived.
Time and a place for everything.
