Feral swine damage and damage management in forested ecosystems. (2009, background): “However, bait (e.g., corn, fruits, potatoes, and manufactured pellets) dispersed adjacent to cropland was ineffective at reducing feral swine damage in Switzerland (Geisser and Reyer, 2004).”
Spatiotemporal behavioral plasticity of wild boar (Sus scrofa) under contrasting conditions of human pressure: primeval forest and metropolitan area (2013, background): “This creates potential for serious conflicts between humans and wild boar in agricultural regions as well as densely populated rural and urban areas (Geisser and Reyer 2004).”
A review of wild boar Sus scrofa diet and factors affecting food selection in native and introduced ranges (2014, background): “no particular foraging preference except for plant matter over animal matter (Schley & Roper 2003, Massei & Genov 2004, Herrero et al. 2005, Adkins & Harveson 2006, Keuling 2007, Wilcox & Van Vuren 2009). However, some authors emphasize their preference for a few items: stenophagy (Herrero et al. 20”
Disease risks and overabundance of game species (2006, background): “This species is increasing its range, reaching levels previously unrecorded (Geisser and Reyer 2004).”
Factors affecting wild boar abundance across an environmental gradient in Spain (2006, background): “In ten sive har vest, be ing the most ef fec tive meth od ol ogy for pop u la tion con trol (Geisser and Reyer 2004), oc curs through out the year in the study area (Herrero 2002).”
Patterns of crop damage by wild boar (Sus scrofa)in Luxembourg over a 10-year period (2008, background): “On the other hand, in the scientific literature, it seems generally accepted that crop damage is not avoided through supplementary feeding (Geisser 2000; Geisser and Reyer 2004; Sulkowski et al. 2004; Cellina 2008, but see also Baubet 2008).”
Diet of wild boar Sus scrofa L. and crop damage in an intensive agroecosystem (2006, background): “Damages to crops have led to the development of different avoidance techniques (culling, supplemental feeding, and electrical fencing) and some evaluations of these techniques (Geisser and Heinz-Ulrich 2004).”
Effects of hunting on wild boar Sus scrofa behaviour (2013, background): “Wild boar can cause significant damage to crops (Genov 1981, Feichtner 1998, Bieber & Ruf 2005, Schley et al. 2008) and is alsooneof themorepopular game species for recreational hunting (Geisser & Reyer 2004).”
