SUMMARY:Lunchtime Discovery: A Big Pig Problem
DESCRIPTION:Collaborative Efforts to Protect Our Food\, Water and Wildlife from Feral Swine\nFalyn Owens\, Extension Wildlife Biologist\, North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission \nFeral swine are one of the most destructive invasive species in the US and pose a real threat to food security\, clean water and native ecosystems. North Carolina is on the northern border of an expanding section of the country where these pigs freely roam. Efforts to hold back the tide are complicated by history\, culture and practical constraints\, but that hasn’t stopped several government agencies and private organizations from pooling their resources to tackle the problem. Learn about the threats posed by feral swine\, the tools we have to confront them\, and what you can do if you spot free-roaming pigs. \nJoin us on YouTube!\n\nLive Virtual Presentation hosted by NC Museum of Natural Sciences’ SECU Daily Planet Curator Chris Smith and the NC Department of Environmental Quality Office of Environmental Education and Public Affairs staff. \nYou can post questions in the YouTube chat or tweet questions to #LunchTimeDiscovery and mention @NorthCarolinaEE. \nBrought to you by the NC DEQ Office of Environmental Education and Public Affairs and the NC Museum of Natural Sciences.
