  • Feral hogs, also known as wild pigs or feral swine, are an invasive species in the United States. They are descendants of domestic pigs that have reverted to a wild state and are often interbred with wild boar. These animals are highly adaptable and can thrive in a variety of habitats, including forests, grasslands, and wetlands.
    Feral hogs are known for their destructive behavior, particularly to agriculture and natural ecosystems. They root up soil while foraging, which can lead to significant erosion, damage crops, and destroy native plant species. Additionally, they can carry and spread diseases to both livestock and humans.
    Their population has been increasing rapidly, with estimates suggesting there are millions of feral hogs spread across at least 35 states, particularly in the southern regions like Texas, Florida, and California. Managing their population is challenging due to their high reproductive rate and elusive nature. Various strategies, including hunting, trapping, and contraceptive measures, are employed to control their numbers and mitigate their impact.
