1 Introduction Feralisation is the process by which a once-domesticated organism detaches from the anthropic environment (Henriksen et al. 2018). While possessing some distinct characteristics, feralisation can generally be perceived as the counterpoint to domestication (E. O. Price 1984). Many species initially domesticated by humans have subsequently given rise to feral populations (Gering et al. 2019), often leading to adverse impacts on both human settlements and biodiversity (Bonacic et al.

Abstract Feralisation, the process by which domesticated organisms revert to a wild state, is a widespread phenomenon across various species. Successfully adapting to a new environment with different access to food, shelter, and other resources requires rapid physiological and behavioural changes, which could potentially be facilitated by gut microbiota plasticity.
