Feral Pig Failure! Has government put feral pigs in the too hard basket?

Feral pigs are costing cane growers like Innisfail's Joe Marano, Luke Zammit and Donna Campagnolo tens of thousands of dollars each year in lost production. Baiting, trapping, hunting, and even aerial shooting programs have so far been unsuccessful at controlling pig populations, with the feral pests able to roam and breed freely in neighbouring national parks. Frustrated growers are calling on all levels of government to step up control efforts and stop failing Australia on feral pigs.
