Montana investigates feral swine in Phillips County after pigs caused barn damage, prompting a multi-agency response to prevent establishment of a wild population.
Montana officials are investigating a feral swine sighting in Phillips County after a barn incident initially thought to involve a bear was found to be caused by uncontained domestic pigs exhibiting wild behavior.
Though Montana has no established feral swine populations, authorities are acting swiftly to prevent one, citing risks to agriculture, ecosystems, and public health.
The Montana Department of Livestock is coordinating with federal and state agencies to trap the animals, with healthy pigs to be processed for food via a nonprofit partner.
