Field Notes

Description:

I'm thinking this may be wild boar, as there was a LOT of feral pig damage in the soil in the area.

But I did not see the "dew claw" prints, so could it be deer? I saw those too....

Habitat:

Silver River State Park, Ocala, Florida. Sinkhole Trail.

Notes:

I'm not a hunter, and I hate killing things.. even bugs. But seeing the immense damage... and I mean IMMENSE... done by the wild pigs, makes me so angry. Nothing could grow in the ground wherever these creatures were rooting around. It looked like a bombing range. Wish the state could get some sharp shooters over a weekend...maybe archers.... and rid the park of these animals. They are NOT native, and they decimate the habitat wherever they are.
