What hunters need to know about African swine fever and biosecurity measures during hunting

African swine fever (ASF) is a lethal infectious disease of domestic pigs and wild boar. In Europe, multiple countries have been affected by ASF, with the majority of outbreaks occurring in wild boar, which can sustain the disease over long periods of time. Controlling the disease in wild boar is a great challenge for the national authorities. Wildlife managers and hunters are key in preventing and slowing the spread of ASF in wild boar. This factsheet designed for hunters summarizes the most important facts on ASF in wild boar and hunting biosecurity. It can be used as a standalone document to inform hunters or as supplementary material during the training of hunters.
