Time-lapse: Amazing comparison of 2 lagoons with/without feral pigs

Exclusion fencing at it's best! In far north Queensland, Australia, exclusion fencing is used to protect significant wetlands from feral pig damage. The fencing also protects cultural sites, and promotes the regeneration of the waterhole, including freshwater fish and turtle species. Often the waterhole last longer in the season, as pigs cause the isolation of small parcels of water through digging which increases evaporation rates. This video shows two lagoons fenced near Coen in Cape York. One is protected from pig access. The other allows pigs, but excludes cattle and horses. This method allows us to observe the impact of pigs on a waterhole, and we can gauge if pig control in the area is successful. If it is, the lagoon that excludes pigs, should look the same as the lagoon that allows pigs (if there are any).
