Abstract

Wild pigs, an invasive and destructive species, are among the greatest global threat to our ecosystems and native wildlife Costing the US alone $2 5 billion in economic losses, emphasis on control and removal of wild pigs has accelerated over the past decade with research and operational management in the scientific spotlight In 2012, the National Wild Pig Task Force (NWPTF) was formed to unify and engage all constituents affected by wild pigs through the exchange of pertinent information on techniques, tools, and research findings The main product of the NWPTF and the venue for information exchange is the Wild Pig Conference, held every other year in varied locations typically throughout the southeast US

当猪能飞

野猪是一种入侵性和破坏性物种，是对我们的生态系统和本地野生动物的最大全球威胁之一，仅美国就造成了25亿美元的经济损失，在过去十年中，随着研究和操作管理成为科学界的焦点，对野猪的控制和清除的重视加快了。国家野猪工作组(NWPTF)的成立是为了通过交换有关技术、工具和研究成果的相关信息来统一和参与所有受野猪影响的成员。NWPTF的主要产品和信息交换的场所是野猪会议，每隔一年在美国东南部的不同地点举行一次

期刊介绍： Human–Wildlife Interactions (HWI) serves the professional needs of the wildlife biologist and manager in the arena of human–wildlife conflicts/interactions, wildlife damage management, and contemporary wildlife management. The intent of HWI is to publish original contributions on all aspects of contemporary wildlife management and human–wildlife interactions with an emphasis on scientific research and management case studies that identify and report innovative conservation strategies, technologies, tools, and partnerships that can enhance human–wildlife interactions by mitigating human–wildlife conflicts through direct and indirect management of wildlife and increased stakeholder engagement. Our intent is to promote a dialogue among wildlife professionals concerning contemporary management issues. As such, we hope to provide a repository for wildlife management science and case studies that document and share manager experiences and lessons learned.
