Ep.2. Pigs with beards, warts, and tusks

Frizzy beard above the nose; thick warts on the face; chitty-chatty and yet ready to butt heads for sex. Scientists Matthew Linkie and Sheherazade from Wildlife Conservation Society (Indonesia) share stories about the many species of wild pigs that roam the forests of Southeast Asia and their deadly new threat, the African swine fever.  Show recorded on 16 Feb 2021. Detailed notes and goodies at https://scienceilluminates.com/monsoon/
