The bait is lethal only to hogs. Even if a scavenger eats the carcass, the pig bait won't hurt them.
I am unaware of any predators that will take piglets, at least not in northeast Tx. I have sent another inquiry to Dr. Higginbotham to find out. Dr. Billy Higginbotham is the recognized feral hog expert in this area and works closely with others across the U.S. in research on feral hogs. You can google his name to find out about him.
If the coyotes in our area preyed on feral piglets, we would have a bumper crop of fat, well fed coyotes and far fewer feral hogs.
I know coyotes do eat a lot of mice, rats, and rabbits, but I think they have started preying on calves. One of our dogs has drug up fresh calf bones on more than one occasion.
If coyotes have graduated to livestock, it won't take long for ranchers to go after them hard.
To my knowledge, we don't have a problem with feral dogs.
