Extreme culling may be required for rapid FMD eradication in feral pigs; modeling leaves open real-world feasibility and needs field validation.
Mathematical modeling suggests that rapid eradication of foot and mouth disease in Australian feral pigs requires culling rates exceeding 95%.
Pech et al. (1988) studied this question.
