Future Trends in Wild Boar Research and Management at IWBS 2026
The 14th edition of the International Wild Boar and Other Suids Symposium (IWBS 2026), held in Croatia under the theme Rooting towards the future, brought together experts from around the world to discuss the latest trends in wild boar research and management. MINUARTIA participated by presenting studies on ecological modelling, population monitoring, impacts on protected natural areas, and African Swine Fever management. Among the highlights of the symposium were a keynote lecture reviewing 25 years of wild boar movement tracking and an international workshop on ASF control and eradication strategies, which emphasized the importance of coordination, cooperation, and the implementation of integrated management measures. These topics are closely aligned with MINUARTIA’s expertise in population censuses, GPS-based monitoring, ecological modelling, and the prevention and mitigation of wild boar damage.
