The indigenous species can be affected by the controlling methods in various ways, this includes difficulty in breeding because of the poisoned food, being shot by accident, and falling into feral hogs traps. Nevertheless, these control methods can also have a positive effect on the indigenous species, because when the feral hogs increasing population is under control other species will be able to breed and produce the products that humans consume (ex: eggs, milk, meat). Due to the extreme damage caused by feral hogs, the United States congress issued $20 million to control the expansion and damage. In many times, when the feral hogs attack farm animals such as lambs and sheep they eat them without leaving any evidence, this leaves the framers with undefined numbers of the
