The feral pig (Sus scrofa) and Philippine deer (Cervus mariannus) were intentionally introduced to Guam for hunting between the late 1600s and 1700s (Conry 1988; Wiles et al. 1999). Arriving on Guam with no natural predators, both species proceeded to destroy native vegetation and increase vulnerability of the now open habitats to other species invasions (Morton et al. 2000). In the nearby area of Andersen AFB Munitions Storage Area 1, ungulate densities were reported to be 183 Philippine deer per square kilometer, and 38 feral pigs per square kilometer (Knutson and Vogt 2002). Both are responsible for considerable damage to the Refuge’s vegetative structure through foraging, rooting, and wallowing. Feral pigs are omnivorous and can feed on native sea turtles, sea birds, and reptiles, putting these vulnerable species at risk. Complete eradication of pigs and deer on Guam is not culturally acceptable to a large number of people because the community values these species for hunting and food. Chapter 5.
