Aerial imagery from two marshes, one with low levels of hog activity (a—Faver-Dykes State Park, FL), and one with high levels of hog activity (b—Matanzas National Forest, FL) showing examples of common patterns in patchiness in hog accessed marshes. In low hog activity marshes, mudflats tend to be smaller and patches are large but in high hog activity marshes, many small patches of remnant cordgrass are common inside of large mudflats.
