The mass shootout of wild boars was ordered in Dobric County, North Bulgaria, after having identified the 15 points of African swine fever (ASP) in the neighboring Tulcea County, Romania.

According to the news.bg website, the hunting season would originally start on 1 October for feral pigs, and this is anticipated now to drastically reduce the stock. The hunters would reduce the number of wild boars with 350 from 387. (MTI)
