【星島日報報道】本港野豬滋擾愈見頻密，有關注組建議，村民可安裝捕獸器，將捕捉的野豬交由漁護署處理或即場屠宰。
野豬受害者關注組發言人何熙遠表示，村民可安裝捕獸器，在捕捉野豬後，交由漁護署處理或即場屠宰，以減低野豬數量。
香港野豬關注組幹事黃豪賢表示， 反對人道毀滅野豬，並指野豬絕孕，以及將牠們搬遷至偏遠地區處理，是可取的做法。他又指，政府應商討「人豬共融」的政策。西貢北約輋下村村長李馬田亦指，野豬出沒或襲擊村民與市民主動餵飼野豬有關。他亦反對獵殺野豬，並指應教育村民及市民切勿餵飼野豬。

Hong Kong wild boar nuisance is more frequent. Profile picture

[Sing Tao Daily reported] Hong Kong's wild boar nuisance is more frequent. Some members of the concern group suggested that villagers could install traps and hand over the captured wild boars to the AFCD for treatment or slaughter on the spot.

He Xiyuan, a spokesman for the Wild Boar Victims Concern Group, said that villagers can install traps and, after catching wild boars, they are handed over to the AFCD or slaughtered on the spot to reduce the number of wild boars.

Huang Haoxian, an officer of the Hong Kong Wild Boar Concern Group, said that it is advisable to oppose the humane destruction of wild boars and to refer to the conception of wild boars and to relocate them to remote areas. He also pointed out that the Government should discuss the policy of "human and pig integration". Li Matian, the head of the village of Sai Kung, under the Sai Kung, also pointed out that wild boars were attacked or attacked by villagers and the public was actively feeding wild boars. He also opposed the hunting of wild boars and pointed out that educators and citizens should not feed wild boars.

HONG KONG: As Hong Kong prepares to celebrate the Year of the Pig, the city is facing its own peculiar porcine pickle - a furious debate about what to do with its growing and emboldened wild boar population.
Best known for its densely packed skyscrapers, Hong Kong also boasts large tracts of subtropical mountains and parkland that host a thriving number of Eurasian wild pigs.

And increasingly humans and pigs are meeting face to snout.
Boars have been filmed running alongside vehicles on roads, jogging down beaches filled with sunbathers, sniffing the tarmac at the city's international airport - and even falling through the ceiling of a children's clothing store.

Easy pickings from rubbish bins and open air barbecue pits as well as humans deliberately feeding them have enticed the wild animals to leave their trotter prints across a growing swathe of the concrete jungle.
The situation has some people rattled.
"They are dangerous to pedestrians as they rush down the hill. They pose threats to the older and the weak, hazards to traffic and hikers," local councilor Chan Chit-kwai, who wants to see steps taken to reduce the wild boar population, told AFP.
"It's not as easy as those people saying we can all just live in peace," he added.
City authorities say the number of sightings and nuisance reports caused by boars has more than doubled, from 294 for all of 2013 to 679 for the January to October period last year.

Injuries have been reported. In October, two elderly people were bitten by a wild boar near a public estate while four months earlier two people needed stitches after they were attacked near the University of Hong Kong, local media reported.
The city's Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department (AFCD) is now considering euthanising "high risk" wild boars that are deemed aggressive or have a record of attacking humans.
"In those cases, we would use drugs to euthanise the wild pigs," conservation officer Cheung Ka Shing told reporters. The agency has also sterilised 54 wild pigs who regularly appear near urban areas and relocated 92 others to more remote locations.
Some local politicians have proposed more active measures such as introducing predators, legalising hunting and even relocating pigs to an uninhabited island - the latter idea getting short shrift given pigs can swim.
'NOT SCARED'
But many balk at harming the boars.
Near the entrance to Aberdeen Country Park on the main island, a wild boar family of three is snoozing under warm sunlight - a trio of elderly Hong Kong residents playing cards just a few meters away.

"I'm not scared. As long as you don't poke them or throw things at them, it will be fine," said 73-year-old Mr Fung, one of the card-players said.
"They have made the Aberdeen country park an attraction," explained another park regular, 70-year-old Mr Lai, who said he encounters boars often while hiking.
"As long as you don't attack them, they won't offend you. It's too brutal to kill them," he added.
The AFCD said they do not have an estimate of the total population of wild pigs in Hong Kong but country park camera surveys have recorded an increase in number and a wider spread than 20 year ago.
Experts say the wild boars' diet is 90 per cent plant based and that they have no need to be fed by humans, who they would normally avoid.
"They shouldn't come to people for food, nor to attack. Their aggressive behavior would be an act of self-defence," said Chan Po Lam, a wetland and fauna conservation officer at the AFCD.
In the Aberdeen park a banner warns visitors not to feed wild animals.
But some ignore it. During AFP's visit a man scattered pieces of white bread on the grass, soon drawing a thankful boar from the bush.
"I believe people feed wild animals out of kindness, but it encourages them to hang out in human communities more often," said Chan.
Veronique Che, from the Hong Kong Wild Boar Concern Group, says the animals shouldn't be blamed for being more visible given the urban sprawl increasingly encroaches on their natural habitat.
"Many problems related to wild boars are actually created by humans," she said.
Just down the road from Aberdeen Country Park is a public housing estate with residents waiting for buses on a narrow winding roadside.
The local boars have burrowed under a metal fence separating the forest from the housing estate to look in the rubbish bins for food.
As a group of boars appeared, locals took photos on their phones while children greeted their hairy neighbours with excited "oink" noises.
"There should be harmony between human and wild boars," Che said. "Humans shouldn't treat wild boars as threats, nor as pets."

5 things about wild boars in Singapore

A wild boar reportedly injured a boy in Punggol on Sunday (May 29), amid sightings of the animal in the area that has prompted the Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority of Singapore to conduct control operations.
There have been several incidents involving wild boars in the past, with the authorities also culling about 80 boars in the Lower Pierce area since 2012 to improve public safety and reduce damage to the area's vegetation.

The National Parks Board (NParks) has also said in the past that it was looking into longer-term measures to manage the boars' population.
Here are 5 things about wild boars in Singapore:
1. WHERE CAN YOU FIND WILD BOARS HERE?
Wild boars have been seen across Singapore in recent years, from Choa Chu Kang to Lower Peirce and near Changi, but there are no figures for their total population on the island.



ADVERTISING

NParks estimated that the agency's culling has reduced the Lower Peirce population to around 30 to 50 boars, down from about 80 to 100 boars in 2012.
2. WHY IS THERE A NEED TO CULL THE BOARS?
NParks has said that culling the boars is necessary because they reproduce very quickly and can pose a risk to public safety. It pointed to two incidents in June and September 2012 where wild boars attacked people in Pulau Ubin and Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park, causing minor injuries.
It has also said that the boars damage vegetation in the area, by trampling the undergrowth and eating the seeds of primary forest trees.
But some Lower Peirce residents opposed to the cull said the attacks were isolated incidents, and some also asked whether the attacks may have been provoked, for example by people surrounding the boars to take photographs.
They also wanted NParks to explore other measures such as sterilisation, contraceptives or relocating the boars. NParks said it had studied these options and ruled them out as impractical - contraceptives on the market would require follow-up injections - or would simply transfer the problem elsewhere.
3. HOW ARE THE BOARS CULLED?
After they are captured, vets sedate them with dart guns and euthanise them with drug injections.
4. WHAT HAPPENS TO THE BODIES?
They are incinerated. The Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority has said that the bodies cannot be sold for meat because there are no appropriate facilities here to ensure safe and hygienic processing of the meat.
As such, it may not be safe for consumption as the boars may carry parasites and diseases.
5. WILD BOARS ARE NOT NEW TO SINGAPORE
Wild boars are not new to Singapore. Researchers wrote in 1895 that the boars are "abundant in Singapore", and in 1924 that they can "still be found in certain parts of Singapore".
But they had become uncommon by 1960, and an extensive survey between 1992 and 1997 found no wild boars in the nature reserves here at all. The extinction was thought to be caused by habitat loss and hunting.
Some researchers believe the reappearance of the animals here was due to boars coming here from Malaysia, Pulau Tekong and Pulau Ubin.
