The ecology and management of feral pigs in the 'wet-dry' tropics of the Northern Territory

This thesis is concerned with studying aspects of the
ecology of feral pigs in the wet-dry tropics of the Northern
Territory. The data are needed for use in the management of
feral pigs to reduce their agricultural and potential
epidemiological impact. Particular emphasis is placed on
collecting data needed for modelling foot-and-mouth disease in
feral pigs, estimating agricultural damage caused by pigs and
evaluating control techniques. All fieldwork was conducted in
the Douglas Daly district of the Northern Territory.
