Milkowski L. & Wojcik J. M., 1984: Structure of wild boar harvest in the Bialowieza Primeval Forest, Acta t'heriol., 29, 28: 337—347 [With 3 Tables & 4 Figs.] A description is given of the wild boar harvest in the western part of the Bialowieza Primeval Forest during the hunting seasons 1970/71—1979/80. The average number obtained was 7.6 animals/1000 ha of forest. Piglets formed only a small proportion (12%) of the harvest, while the proportion of adult males was high (35°/o). In successive hunting seasons the average weight of disembowelled carcasses was: piglets — 15—31 kg, yearlings — 34—41 kg, sows 53—65 kg and boars 59—78 kg. A decrease in average carcass weight of yearlings and older wild boars was observed over the ten-year period, the greatest decrease, of about 20 kg, occurring in the adult male class. This phenomenon can be explained by the incorrect harvesting strategy applied to wild boar in the Forest. [Krzyze 15, 17-230 Bialowieza (LM) and Mammals Res. Inst., Polish Acad.
