Wild Boar: Measures in the "infected zone"
Strategic objectives for eradicating the disease
• Knowledge of the situation & its evolution
• Limiting & preventing spread among wild boars
• Eliminating contaminated carcasses (= removing the source
of infection)
• Progressive and adapted elimination of all wild boar
Basis for the definition of zones
1. Presence of the ASF virus
2. Habitat of wild boar &
forested areas
3. Existing natural or
artificial barriers
