Feral Pigs and Water Issues
May 16 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
Wild pigs are an invasive species with cascading impacts to agriculture, property, and natural resources. Texas watersheds are particularly vulnerable to damage. Damage includes soil erosion, bacterial contamination, bank erosion and changes to vegetation, all of which affect water quality and wildlife. In this webinar we’ll discuss the impacts pigs have and the benefits of control.
