	Taming Feral Kittens
		Feral cats are homeless cats, many of whom were born in the wild; others are pets who were abandoned or have become lost.
		Feral kittens should be checked out by a veterinarian and tested for diseases contagious to other cats before you bring them home.
		Feral cats tend to bond with one human so they best adjust to a new home if they are socialized with other humans before being adopted out.

	Feral Cats
		A feral cat may have orginally been a housecat who was abandoned and left to fare on her own or she may have been the offspring of a cat living outdoors.
		Kittens born to feral mothers or born to stray (but not feral) mothers who have been abandoned, should (in communities where all kittens are able to find homes) be removed from the colony and tamed.
		The key to taming a feral kitten is to provide her with a maximal amount of human contact in a situation where she cannot totally escape or hide.

	The Feral Camel (Camelus dromedarius) - fact sheet
		The feral camel lives in non-territorial groups of three main kinds: year-round groups of bulls (males); summer groups of cows (females) and calves; and camel winter breeding groups that include a mature bull and several cows and their calves.
		Feral camels are capable of severely damaging native trees such as quandong and native peach, particularly during drought, when they gather in large numbers.
		The impact of feral camels on native plants and drinkable water is most pronounced during drought, when areas close to remote waterholes become refuges that are critical to the survival of a range of native animals and plants.

	NWCR article, Autumn 2003: Norton (Site not responding. Last check: )
		This is somewhat surprising, as the feral city may prove as common a feature of the global landscape of the first decade of the twenty-first century as the faltering, failing, or failed state was in the last decade of the twentieth.
		The putative “feral city” is (or would be) a metropolis with a population of more than a million people in a state the government of which has lost the ability to maintain the rule of law within the city’s boundaries yet remains a functioning actor in the greater international system.
		Should the feral city be of special importance—for example, a major seaport or airport—the state might find it easier to negotiate power and profit-sharing arrangements with city power centers to ensure that facilities important to state survival continue to operate.

	Depredation Problems Involving feral Hogs
		Feral hogs have an acute sense of smell, are omnivorous and opportunistic, and are thus frequently attracted to birthing grounds where they feed on afterbirths and fetal tissue.
		Feral hogs are omnivorous and feed on a wide variety of items, many of which are staples for native fauna (Wood and Roark, 1980; Scott and Pelton, 1975; Baber and Coblentz, 1987).
		The feral hog population is a potential reservoir for numerous diseases and parasites that threaten livestock and deer.

	Neighborhood Cats \| What is a Feral Cat?
		A "feral" cat is one who has reverted in some degree to a wild state.
		In most cases, feral cats are not completely wild because they still depend on people for their food source, whether it's a caretaker who comes by once or twice a day, a dumpster outside a restaurant, garbage cans, or the like.
		Many well-meaning people, convinced they are "saving" a feral cat by bringing him indoors, end up condemning the poor creature to a life of hiding under the bed and being in constant fear.

	Detailed Discussion of Feral Cat Population Control
		Because feral cat colonies are of great concern to communities where they reside, and especially because of their potential to dramatically alter the makeup of ecosystems through predation, the question of who is legally responsible for these animals must be addressed.
		Feral cats have been defined as cats which were once domesticated, but were abandoned, lost, or ran away.
		These particularly dramatic instances of cat predation serve both as examples of the effects of an unchecked feral cat population and as ammunition for bird advocacy groups, who suggest that feral cat populations are far too destructive to be left alone or placed back into the wild after being spayed or neutered.

	Feral Problem
		Feral populations are swollen by breeding and the dumping of unwanted pets; 5 million cats and dogs are 'dumped' annually according to the US Department of Agriculture while American surveys suggest that between 36% and 60% of unneutered pet cats go feral within 3 years.
		Feral cats are domestic cats which have gone wild, and their offspring which are born in the wild and have no exposure to humans during the critical socialization period (generally considered to be 3-8 weeks).
		Although feral cats are a possible (but unlikely) vector for Rabies and may also cause a nuisance by raiding chicken coops and rabbit hutches, they are less of a danger to man and livestock than feral dogs which have been known to attack humans.
