Abstract	The Eurasian wild pig (Sus scrofa Linnaeus, 1758) is the most adaptable and widespread pig species in the world and is presently Singapore’s largest, native, terrestrial mammal. Formerly thought to be extinct on Singapore Island, small numbers persisted only on offshore islands—Pulau Ubin and Pulau Tekong. We review and summarise recent records from Singapore Island, which suggest that it may have recently re-colonised the island from southern Peninsular Malaysia, as well as from Pulau Ubin and Pulau Tekong and is now locally common. Using density estimates from similar sites in Southeast Asia, we estimate that the forests in the Central Catchment Nature Reserve alone may support as many as 552 individuals. We speculate that the large, existing population of wild pigs may alter forest structure and tree composition by reducing seed recruitment and increasing understorey disturbance to saplings, with potential ecological implications on forest tree families like Dipterocarpaceae
