Update: 2025-10-01
Description
In this episode of our series with the Alabama Cooperative Extension System (ACES), we sit down with Dr. Mark Smith to tackle one of Alabama’s most destructive invasive species: wild pigs. We explore their fascinating evolutionary history, the widespread damage they cause to ecosystems, agriculture, and property, and why their presence poses such a serious challenge to landowners and wildlife managers alike. Most importantly, Dr. Smith shares practical, science-based strategies for controlling wild pig populations and mitigating their impact. Whether you’re a landowner, hunter, or simply curious about wildlife management, this conversation offers valuable insights into one of the most pressing wildlife issues in the Southeast.
