The KDFWR continually maps the geographic distribution of wild pigs in the Commonwealth, while relying heavily on cooperation from landowners and hunters.  In conjunction with those tasks, the KDFWR also has implemented response measures, regional control efforts, increased public education, and statewide cooperative disease surveillance protocols. The Wildlife Division has also created a Wild Swine Task Force to address the relatively recent expansion of pigs across the Commonwealth.  The team is composed of state, federal and private stake holders with vested interests in management efforts and regulatory considerations associated with wild swine in Kentucky.
