“PigBait connects the people affected by wild pigs with the science, regulations, control technologies, field experience and national response needed to reduce their impact.”
The Wild Pig Problem
Wild pigs can cause serious damage to crops, pastures, property, native habitat and wildlife. They can also carry and spread diseases and parasites that threaten livestock, wildlife and, in some cases, human health. Effective control requires more than a single trap, bait or technique. PigBait brings together practical information on wild-pig behavior, diseases and parasites, control methods, equipment and field experience to help landowners and professionals make better-informed decisions.
