THE IMPACT OF THE BOLL WEEVIL, 1892-1932. Fabian Lange, Yale University. Alan L. Olmstead, UC Davis. Paul W. Rhode, Univ. of Arizona & NBER. February 2008. Abstract: The boll weevil is Americaâs most celebrated agricultural pest.
First discovered by Audubon and Bachman in 1851, the species declined throughout the 20th century, primarily as a result of decreases in prairie dog populations and sylvatic plague. It was declared extinct in 1979 until Lucille Hogg's dog brought a dead black-footed ferret to her door in Meeteetse, Wyoming in 1981. That remnant population of a few dozen ferrets lasted there until the animals were considered extinct in the wild in 1987.
