According to CCTV news, the State Forestry and Grassland Administration recently issued the "Directory of Terrestrial Wild Animals with Important Ecological, Scientific and Social Value (Draft for Comments)" to solicit opinions from the public.
It can be found in the draft directory that wild boars that were included in the "List of Beneficial Terrestrial Wild Animals Protected by the State or of Important Economic and Scientific Research Value" in 2000 have been deleted.
Public reports show that wild boars have now become the wildest and most damaged wild animals in China. As a wild boar with "three haves" to protect animals, there is legal protection, "pigs can grab grain, but people can't hurt pigs." The fierce clash between humans and pigs over the descent of wild boars is becoming a nationwide "war."

Wild boars are frequently in trouble
2021 seems to be the first year of the outbreak of the human-pig contradiction. According to media statistics, in 2021 alone, Nanjing wild boar was on 12 Weibo hot searches, dubbed "City of Wild Boar", and published titles such as Xuanwu Lake and wild boar swimming in the lake, wild boar mother rate a string of wild boar dolls foraging and crashing, "Double Eleven" wild boar campus show love was taken away by anesthesia;
On May 8, 2021, in Jingxing County, Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, several villagers were attacked by a wild boar that broke into the village, two of them were injured and taken to the hospital for treatment, and one of them, an elderly man in his 80s, was seriously injured;
In October 2021, Hong Kong singer Li Wei's mother was paralyzed by a wild boar attack while out for a walk;
On October 22, 2021, a farmer in Langxiang, Yichun City, Heilongjiang Province, was attacked by a large wild boar while collecting soybeans in his own field, and there was a hole in the back that was poked by a wild boar with fangs...
According to expert analysis, the frequent occurrence of wild boar injuries is related to the expansion of populations and the disruption of ecosystem balance. According to public information, the number of wild boars in Shaanxi Province exceeds 100,000; in Tongjiang County, Sichuan Province, according to preliminary surveys, there are 20,000 wild boars in the county in 2020; in Xiuning County, Anhui Province, a survey in 2021 found that the total number of wild boars in the county is about 7134 to 7946, and the land area reaches 3.8 per square kilometer, exceeding the reasonable population density standard of 2 per square kilometer.

At the middle end of the food chain, wild boars are extremely fertile, with giant pandas and antelopes giving birth to one litter per litter, while wild boars can produce up to nine litters per litter. The implementation of the project of returning farmland to forest and protecting natural forests has promoted the expansion of the population of wild boars, but the natural enemies of wild boars, such as jackals, wolves, tigers and leopards, have not recovered as quickly as wild boar populations.
The increasing number of wild boars is not only a perceptual understanding of farmers, but also in line with official judgment. According to the paper data from the Yebao Station in Longnan City, Gansu Province, 12 people were killed by wild boars in Longnan Province from 2016 to 2020. According to Ankang Daily, the staff of the Wildlife Conservation Department of the Natural Forest Conservation Center of Ankang City, Shaanxi Province, said: "From 2016 to 2020, wild boars caused 10 casualties, causing various economic losses of more than 300 million yuan. ”
According to Anhui Economic Television, in Tongcheng, Anhui Province, since the beginning of this year, the city has received nearly 40 reports of wild boar infringing on villagers' property. Local villagers said that many hens saw their companions being harmed by wild boars, which frightened the endocrine disorder and could not even give birth to eggs. Tongcheng Wildlife Protection Station Director Zhang Movement introduced that this year is more than several times that of previous years, last year there were only three to five cases, the previous year only two or three cases, this year's wild boar harm is more serious.

Although the hatred is itchy, the villagers are helpless against the wild boar, one is that they can't fight, and the other is that they can't beat it.
In recent years, there have also been many cases of criminal punishment for illegal hunting of wild boars, which have aroused concern.
On November 24 this year, a couple in Huaichuan County, Nanyang City, Henan Province, was sentenced to a suspended sentence for illegal hunting for hunting at least eight wild boars in three months. "I really can't do anything, the wild boar has eaten more than 100 acres of land for 70 acres to be harvested," defendant Wu mou stated to the court.
Wild boar flooding and the increasing contradiction between man and pig have attracted the attention of many departments.
This year, the State Forestry and Grassland Administration conducted a special investigation on the harm caused by wild boars and other wild animals, and conducted a comprehensive investigation of the harm caused by wild boars and other wild animals in 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) across the country. In addition, special notices have been issued twice to carry out comprehensive pilot projects for the prevention and control of wild boar hazards in 14 provinces, including Sichuan, to study and formulate technical measures, and to guide all localities to carry out population regulation, active prevention, compensation and other work.
