The researchers used predictive population models coupled with advanced mapping techniques to estimate the climate damage wild pigs are causing across five continents. Since soil contains nearly three times as much carbon than in the atmosphere, even a small fraction of carbon emitted from soil has the potential to accelerate climate change.

One of the really interesting things with these grasses is that the climate in which they have found themselves has changed a lot over the last several hundred thousand years. As glaciers and climate change occurred, their populations were pushed south. And as glaciers retreated, the populations expanded north. Tom Juenger.
