Abstract

A small sample of pig skulls and part-skeletons from Australian feral pigs is described below. The specimens were collected in the initial stage of a research project intended to look at the process of animal domestication when going in reverse, as with the feral pigs of Australia. However, this project was never completed. The data below is offered in the hope that it is sufficient to be useful to those with an interest in pig osteology, and perhaps to encourage further work.
