Head of WWF-Armenia Karen Manvelyan has negatively assessed the
boar hunting. He has told ArmInfo that several years ago the African
swine fever affected not only domestic pigs, but also wild pigs in
the republic. "A big boar livestock died of this disease, and one
should give an opportunity to the population to restore within the
next 3-5 years", Manvelyan said.
To note, over the hunting season in Armenia from 1 November 2012 till
28 February 2013, it is allowed to kill up to 10 boar units.
