- Abstract:
- ... In recent years, wild boar (Sus scrofa) populations have increased rapidly, causing serious problems such as crop damage and disease transmission. In the present study, we built an individual-based model to explore how heterogeneous landscapes and the interactions of wild boars and hunters affect wild boar population control. The simulated wild boars in the model move on a heterogeneous landscape. ...

- Abstract:
- ... We analyzed the stomach contents of wild boars (Sus scrofa) inhabiting evergreen forests in western Japan and found that they were dependent on the masting of acorns of Castanopsis cuspidata. The increased availability of C. cuspidata acorns positively affected their consumption by wild boars. In the good mast years, wild boars consumed C. cuspidata acorns from November to June of the following ye ...

- Abstract:
- ... ContextWild boars (Sus scrofa) and European badgers (Meles meles) have been increasingly implicated in crop damage in Greece. The species’ increasing presence on agricultural land has also raised concern about disease transmission to livestock and humans. Greece does not have any plans for the management of these situations, because they have only recently emerged. Understanding public preferences ...

The global expansion of wild pigs over the last few decades has resulted in an increase in extent and distribution of damages to crops, placing a growing strain on agricultural producers and land managers. Despite the extent of wild pig damage to agriculture, there is little data regarding timing and spatial variability of damage to corn (Zea mays Linnaeus) and we found no data regarding the effec ...

- Abstract:
- ... The population density of wild boar (Sus scrofa) in Northern Switzerland has increased dramatically during the last three decades and the species has become a major threat to agriculture, causing severe damage to crops and grassland. Vulnerable fields have to be protected from wild boar incursion, which is in most cases achieved by using electric fences. Alternatively, deterrents basing on optical ...

- Abstract:
- ... Rapidly increasing populations of wild boar in Sweden and Europe cause much damage to crops, and there is a critical need for more knowledge about their habitat utilization, especially of agricultural fields. In our study, we first assess the spatial pattern of damage in relation to the edges of agricultural fields. Next, with the aid of global positioning system collars, we studied the pattern of ...

- Abstract:
- ... Tetracycline hydrochloride (THC) is an ingestible antibiotic that produces a fluorescent mark on growing bone and may be combined with baits to aid ingestion by wildlife species. Feral pigs are an invasive species found throughout the United States. They are implicated in damages such as increased erosion, direct competition with native wildlife, destruction of habitat, disease transmission, and c ...

- Abstract:
- ... Crop raiding can reduce farmers' tolerance towards wildlife. Despite higher human population densities in rural areas, and more rapid conversion of forest to farmland, much less is known about crop raiding in Asia than in Africa. Over 14 months, we identified perceived and actual crop pests, and their patterns of crop raiding from farmland in and around Kerinci Seblat National Park, Sumatra. Farme ...

- Abstract:
- ... The Middle Ebro Valley (MEV) is a semiarid area in northeast Iberia where the original riparian ecosystems are almost extinct and were replaced by intensive irrigated agricultural lands. To minimize crop damages and to understand the impact of wild boar on relict riparian ecosystems, a culling program was undertaken from 1994 until 2004. To assess the impact of wild boars, we analyzed stomach cont ...

- Abstract:
- ... The population density of wild boars in Lower Saxony, Germany, has increased drastically during the last decade. High wild boar density causes severe damage to crops and increases the risk of occurrence and distribution of the Classical Swine Fever disease (CSF). Consequently, a reduction of the population density by hunting wild boar in hog cholera zones is necessary. An effective hunting method ...

- Abstract:
- ... The present wild boar Sus scrofa population in Sweden mainly originates from animals that have escaped from enclosures. At some locations wild boars have evidently been released deliberately. Whatever their origin, rapid increases in both number and distribution of free‐ranging wild boars have occurred. As wild boars are considered exotic in the Swedish fauna, sportsmen very often provide suppleme ...
