Hi Vance, thanks for the record. As well as pigs, both Sambar and Fallow Deer are present in that area. How can we tell this is not one of the deer species? Other pig signs in the area such as scats or ground rooting would be more definite.

Thanks Don. I come across these a lot out in Namadgi, but yes, a little tenuous just on this. In any event, feral animals in need of control.
