Description:

Data on age structures and sex ratios were collected from feral pig, Sus scrofa Linnaeus, 1758, populations in the northern part of the South Island, New Zealand. The age of 1966 pigs was assessed from (a) tooth replacement and wear (b) cementum layering in molars. The age structure of the feral pig population studied is typical of heavily utilized populations.
