Flooding from Hurricane Ian is forcing wildlife into Florida neighborhoods.

Wild boards? You mean trees? Layers and layers of editorial oversight, indeed.

What about them wild cows, DM? 🤣

Maybe they meant “Wild Broads”

I assume they meant Wild Boars from the context, but it’s yet another example of sloppy writing and minimal, if any, editorial review.
Unfortunately, just like anyone with a camera can claim to be a photographer these days, anyone with a device can be claim to be a journalist, with about the same results…

But the spell checker said it was fine!

Anyone know if that Grammarly software would catch that kind of thing?

    No, it will catch grammatical errors, it will catch spelling errors, but incorrect word selection like this will still slide through.

I’ll now refer to trees and felled wood as wild boards. Getting a good laugh out of this one

Obviously, they meant plank-ton.
