The problem with feral pigs is that they have been in Florida since 1600s so I don't think it was feral pig's responsbiltiy. Small animals wasn't main diet for feral hogs anyways.
Pythons in the Everglades ending the world as we know it!!!

One problem with the natural predators theory is that if they were the main cause we would have noticed many years ago and most of the smaller mammals would be gone by now.
as posted in the other thread on this...
Ok, few things to address.....
First, BS on the article. It DOES NOT factor in things suck as the dramatic increase in gators. It also does NOT factor in increase in panthers, the vermin know as coyotes or other such animals as the scientists decided to not factor these in at all in the study.
Second, it also does NOT factor in the humans expanding.
Third, the cold snap awhile ago destroyed much of the population.
Fourth, the burms have been traced NOT to released pets but to a road side zoo that was destroyed by a hurricane. But people such as yourself read into the propaganda that this is all the hobbiest faults.
And lastly, the damage done by burms are greatly over exaggerated.
Something from the study for you.
"The status of species that are rare, patchily distributed, active during the day, or that dont cross roads was not assessed in this new study."
Oh so the study selectivly choose what to look for?? And how did they do this study?? Drive by looking for road kill?? Game cameras??
This study is a farce. This is a map made devised by USGS the same retards that did that study. They CAN NOT be trusted for thier info.
A study of the possible REAL range of the burms.
