Another wild boar flood! 20,000 wild boars in Tongjiang, Sichuan, flooded the area, and the local people were overwhelmed. According to the "Tongjiang County Wild Boar Hazard Prevention and Control Point Work Plan": by the end of 2021, Tongjiang County plans to kill 750 wild boars, and the local professional hunting team has been invited to hope to hunt wild boars in an orderly manner.

In our opinion, hunting wild boar is very simple, and it can be hunted by poisoning, traps, beasts and other ways, saving time and effort. But in fact, in order to protect the local ecological environment, hunting teams can not use methods that are threatening to other wild animals, and the only way to hunt is to fight wild boars at close range.

Wild boar skin is thick and thick, and it has a strong ability to resist blows, and even if it is injured, it still has the ability to hurt people. Coupled with the fact that wild boars have long fangs, enraged wild boars can even cause injury or death to hunters, so there are no shotguns, hunting dogs and professional skills, and it is not recommended for ordinary people to hunt wild boars.

In the face of 20,000 flooded wild boars in Tongjiang, the professional hunting team took hounds and professional hunting tools to hunt in places with high wild boar density, and in 2 and a half days, a total of 8 wild boars were killed. According to the number of wild boars that were finally killed, the local government paid the other party the dry fee according to the standard of 2,000 yuan per head.

It should be known that the team that hunts wild boars is a professional team with many excellent hunting dogs, but it is still very difficult to hunt wild boars, and many of them are unfortunately killed in the process of killing wild boars.

In addition to The Tongjiang River in Sichuan, many provinces and municipalities in China are also facing the risk of local flooding of wild boars, many of which have been open to hunting wild boars, such as: the hunting ban period in Shaanxi has been shortened to 2 months, Xinyang, Henan has agreed to hunt wild boars, and Wuyuan will formulate plans to hunt wild boars every year.

The reason why wild boars can flood is related to the lack of local predators, in the past, the jackals, tigers and leopards would kill wild boars, making it difficult for wild boar populations to flood. But now the jackal tiger leopard habitat has shrunk again and again, and even in many places there is no trace of large beasts, which gives wild boars a chance to breathe.

Wild boar flooding capacity is very strong, in the peak of breeding wild boar can produce two litters per year, of which 4-12 per litter, sows will provide some protection for the cubs, so that the survival rate of wild boars significantly improved.

In addition, wild boars are three protected animals, which have long been protected by humans, so the number of wild boars in just a few decades has increased, and the number of wild boars in local areas has even been oversaturated.

Oversaturated wild boars will come from the wild to near human habitats in order to obtain food, destroying farmland and destroying crops. The local farmers were furious because the wild boars not only ate but also ho hoot, and the wild boars liked to move in groups and could waste several acres of land in one night.

Wild boar frequent patronage, the local farmland caused by a reduction in production, or even a harvest, although some local governments will compensate for the damage of wild boar, but the loss of long time, and the process is too cumbersome, some villagers are not concerned about the claim, the loss caused by the farmers themselves, so as to intensify the contradiction between people and pigs.

What's worse is that boars in estrus and sows with cubs are very destructive, and may actively attack when encountering humans. Most of the people who stay in the countryside are old people, who cannot withstand the attack of wild boars, and further intensify the contradiction between people and pigs.

In recent years, due to the frequent disturbances of wild boars and the problem of oversaturated wild boar populations in many places, many areas have formulated hunting plans for wild boar flooding.

Hunting is allowed, but not casual hunting, but planned and purposeful hunting, the most important of which is to set the number of wild boars hunted each year.

Although wild boars frequently do evil, but wild boar is a key species in the ecosystem, their cubs are the cuisine of beasts of prey and birds of prey, the increase in the number of wild boars is conducive to the recovery of China's carnivorous population, such as: the number of wild boars and ungulates in northeast China has soared, attracting many Siberian tigers to migrate back to China.

Second, wild boars occasionally act as scavengers, eating the remains of dead animals to avoid the occurrence of infectious diseases and protect the safety of local ecosystems.

Moreover, wild boars plow the soil with their long noses to allow seeds deep in the soil to germinate; in winter, wild boars arch snow and expose the ground to provide a feeding ground for small birds and small mammals.

Wild boars are essential to local ecosystems and are one of the most critical species, without which the wild ecological chain would be unbalanced. Therefore, we want to solve the problem of wild boar flooding, not the problem of eliminating wild boar, so we can only hunt wild boar in an orderly manner, not eliminate it completely.

Secondly, it is also necessary to protect the local carnivores, and only when the carnivorous population is restored can the local ecological chain operate healthily, and the problem of wild boar will be solved.
