摘要

This document summarizes information resulting from the Workshop on Control Methods for the European Wild Hog, held at Great Smoky Mountains National Park on November 29-30, 1983. Personnel in the park were deeply concerned about the negative effects of this exotic species on the natural ecosystems of the park and initiated this workshop to explore new and expanded control efforts. Representatives from all National Park Service units experiencing hog problems, as well as scientists with past research or management interest in the species, were invited to the workshop. The expertise of the participants covered a variety of disciplines.
