Wild boar act as a reservoir of CSF infection, and so control must also be aimed at this population. As well as adequate surveillance, this involves utilising knowledge about factors influencing CSF epidemiology such as wild boar behaviour and population dynamics, and the influence of hunting strategies. Wild boar vaccination schemes are currently being undertaken in parts of Europe using bait containing marker vaccines. | Wild boar act as a reservoir of CSF infection, and so control must also be aimed at this population.
