Successful removal of feral pigs from Bulburin National Park |
|
A mob of 15 feral pigs have been removed from the Bulburin National Park as part of BMRG's Bushfire Recovery Project. Thanks to Bush to Bay Weed Control’s baseline sampling, and University of Queensland’s supplementary data, six locations and 49 feral pigs were identified within a 250-hectare area. Controlling the feral pig population is an ongoing challenge, as they will continue to return to the area. QPWS will continue the control of pigs into the future. For now, threatened flora and fauna have been given a reprieve from the pigs, increasing their chance for population survival.
