With a gestation period of just under 4 months, sows can produce 2 litters per year, with up to 10-12 piglets each time 🐗

To reduce the feral pig population, we need to get ahead of the reproduction rate.

How?
The recipe for successful feral pig control includes:
🐗 Combining multiple control methods - baiting, trapping, shooting - for a more effective approach that targets different behaviours and covers more ground.
🐗 Follow up after initial control to maintain pressure. Another control program within 3 months is recommended.
🐗 Integrate control into farm operations - before lambing, crop maturity, or post-harvest. Use seasonal conditions to your advantage.
🐗 Work with neighbours across boundaries. Feral pigs don’t respect borders - neither should control programs.

The numbers of feral rabbits along the Victoria-News South Wales border are booming due to recent rainy conditions which created more feed and ideal breeding conditions for the animal.

Scientists say a new deadly virus release to help suppress numbers is needed, but funding is running out.

More great info from VFE.

Was talking to the guys at D & M Land Management today about Indian myna birds and the great work they’re doing tackling the issue. There was mention of doing a fact sheet... well here it is.

Indian mynas compete with native wildlife for nesting hollows, destroy eggs and chicks, and push native species out of local habitats.

Know the impact. Protect our environment.

Targeted. Humane. Compliant.
