Feral Pigs On Ground Activites

Feral pigs are a serious environmental and agricultural pest across Australia. They are found in all States and Territories, particularly around wetlands and river systems. The aim of this project was to gain a better understanding of feral pig movement and ecology. GPS collar trackers were fitted to the pigs, providing data that will ultimately assist in determining the location of the most suitable feral pig control techniques for the long term goal of reducing feral pig abundance and the adverse impact they have on agriculture and the environment.
