This Glovebox Guide for Managing Feral Pigs is a practical resource designed to assist Australian landholders (farmers, public land managers and indigenous groups) in the control of feral pigs.
A large part of tackling a feral pig problem depends on the landholder’s awareness of the situation and their ability to make informed decisions about how best to take action to reduce feral pig damage.
The National Feral Pig Action Plan is the first national strategy that has been developed to address reducing the impacts caused by feral pigs to Australia’s environmental, agricultural, cultural and social assets through sustained, coordinated and collaborative actions by land managers.
