Division 2

If data on population density and size are not available, the geographic area within which to sample must be identified taking into account the continuous presence of feral pigs and the presence of natural or artificial barriers that will efficiently prevent large and continuous movement of the animals. When such circumstances do not occur, or in case of large areas, it is recommended to identify sampling areas of about 200 km2, where a population of about 400 to 1000 feral pigs may usually live.
