Wildlife officials are worried wild pigs have become exposed to rodenticide, contaminating the animals and turning their meat and fat blue.

Wild pigs in California were recently found to have blue-colored muscle and fat, a sign that they may have ingested toxic rodenticide bait, according to the state's Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Multiple wild pigs' tissue turned blue in the Monterey County area after pesticide bait exposure, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife said.
