Border Fencing To Prevent Another Kind of Migration Altogether
Denmark is installing fencing along its border with Germany. The small European nation is hoping to keep out hordes of migrant… pigs.
As the BBC reports, Denmark has a thriving pork industry. That business is threatened by African swine fever, which can be transmitted by migrating wild boar. The disease is incurable and fatal.
And, so, Denmark has concluded that a $12 million dollar fence is a small price to pay to protect its $1.7 billion dollar pork interests.
