Document Description
Implement a Feral Pig Control Program at Pacheco State Park, in accordance with a Memorandum of Understanding with the California Department of Fish & Game (including daily trap inspections and monthly reports). Non-native feral pigs, that wallow and root in riparian areas and are otherwise destructive and compete with native wildlife, will be trapped using humane multiple-panel traps and dispatched with lead-free bullets. Carcasses will not be buried in the park and ground disturbance will be avoided or minimized. The on-going program will have net benefits for wildlife, native plants, cultural resources, and the visitor experience.
