Invasive Wild Pigs and Their Behavior - North Carolina Wildlife Federation

Wildlife Biologist and Regenerative Farmer Lindsay Dyal joins NCWF Union County Wildlife Chapter to discuss behavioral state resource selection of wild pigs in the US Southeast. Linsday will discuss the home ranges and interactions between wild pigs and their environment including foraging, resting, and traveling. Invasive wild pigs are generalists and have the potential to alter ecosystems across broad spatial scales. Lindsay will share the results of research that tracked 49 collared wild pigs in the Southeast United States and interpret how this information can aid in the advancement of management strategies for controlling populations of this important invasive species. #wildlife #conservation #northcarolina #invasivespecies #wildpigs
