Feral pigs and the environment | an annotated bibliography
Feral pigs (Sus scrofa) have been introduced by humans to many parts of the world where pigs did not exist historically. In areas where feral pigs are an exotic species, they are a joy to people who like to hunt them and a menace to people who are concerned about their effects on native flora and fauna.
In the "Feral pigs and the environment: an annotated bibliography", the authors examine the scientific literature to assess the impact of feral hogs on their environment. this paper emphasizes studies conducted in areas where feral hogs are exotic species, but it has also included those conducted within their native range, along with papers dealing with the management of feral hogs.
