Abstract

Field assessment of the proportion of target and non-target individuals that consume baits is crucial to evaluate and optimize the cost-efficacy of a baiting campaign. In our study, different pre-baiting and baiting systems were tested at a long time scale (12 months) to try to improve vaccination efficiency of wild boars against classical swine fever virus. Evaluation of seasonal variation in natural food resources (competition with bait consumption) and life cycle succession of wild boar from piglets to adults is included and consumption of baits by non-target species is discussed.
