Evidence of exotic mammals

Natural England record evidence of exotic mammals in England.

Evidence reported by the general public is a valued contribution to an ongoing surveillance programme. We have a particular interest in evidence of:

  • wild or feral boar
  • other exotic animals

Distribution of wild boar Indicative distribution of wild boar in England based on data compiled for the Defra consultation and Natural England Wildlife Management & Licensing Team monitoring data.

To report exotic mammal evidence please email details to the Natural England Wildlife Licensing Unit wildlife@naturalengland.org.uk (please quote: for the attention of Wildlife Licensing Unit - Exotic mammals). Reports can also be faxed or posted. If you would like to discuss the evidence with one of our advisory staff please contact the Wildlife Licensing Unit who will either assist you directly or put you in touch with a Natural England Wildlife Adviser.
