France ponders building a fence

France is thinking about building a fence along its border with Germany to keep wild hogs from crossing.

Germany has had cases of African Swine Fever which devastates hog herds.


France is also increasing surveillance and culling wild boar populations near the border to minimize risk. 


Belgium has adopted similar measures aimed at containing the disease.


France is also mobilizing hunters and implementing strategies that have proven effective in neighboring regions, emphasizing the importance of maintaining biosecurity.
