Wild pigs help promote tree diversity in rainforests
Wild pigs in Malaysia are typically known for being environmentally destructive, but a new study from the University of Queensland suggests that they actually play an important role in building rainforests. The research shows, for the first time, that wild pigs help to promote biodiversity across forest ecosystems. While studying the impacts of native pigs in Malaysian rainforests, Dr. Matthew Luskin discovered that their nests may be critical t…
