NY State vs Feral Swine
Andersen figures the hogs have caused upwards of $40,000 in damage on his farm.
The worst loss was a corn crop that the pigs took out twice in a row, Andersen said.
"In a week they had cleaned the field. Eleven acres," he said. "I replanted it. Man, it was gorgeous. About four or five inches high. I was in there on a Thursday night. I came back on a Monday morning and it was gone. There wasn't a piece left anywhere, they just cleaned it. Went right down the rows, vrooooom."
