Tongjiang, Sichuan: Wild pig flooding into disaster hunting problems Pilot to prevent and control more than 40 heads a year, only the annual target zero

Cover news reporter Xie Ying

In the early morning of July 14, the sky was just on, and Xiao Houjiang, the villagers of Houba Village, Qianjia Town, Tongjiang County, Bazhong City, habitually got up early, and went to the fields and the sheepfang to make a circle to see if there was a trace of wild boar patronage. Just a month ago, a wild boar broke into the sheep rim, causing two sheep to miss, and one was killed.

Right now, as corn, potato and other crops have gradually matured, some towns and villages in the northern mountainous areas of Tongjiang County, including Kaishan Town, have entered the annual wild boar to cause high incidence.

What is accompanied by the ecological environment is the increasing harm caused by the flooding of wild boar breeds. In July 2021, Tongjiang County was identified as one of the pilot counties of wild boar hazards prevention and control by the Provincial Forest Press Bureau. Just that month, the government invited the first hunting operation of professional hunting teams to be widespread attention.

In the past year, how about the prevention and control results of Tongjiang County? On July 13, the cover reporter learned from the Tongjiang County Forestry Bureau that since last year, the county's hunting wild boar is about 40 heads. Frankly.

What the public is most interested in is of course the tense hunting scene and the fruitful results. Within the current legal and policy framework, can Tongjiang explore a set of effective and promoting methods or mechanisms? It is the value of the pilot.

Not a beautiful transcript

A year ago, a hunting team in Mianyang Jiangyou took equipment and prestigious hunting dogs to help Tongjiang. With the assistance of local forces, 8 and a half days hunting 8 wild pigs. At the same time, this team launched a operation in another pilot county, Mianyang Beichuan, and the price paid was not heavy -a imported hound with a value of up to 60,000 yuan was killed.

According to the plan, by the end of 2021, Tongjiang County will hunt 750 wild boars. "This is based on the total number of estimates, and calculated according to certain standards." Said the staff of the Wild Insurance Center of the County Forestry Bureau, of course, determine this goal and consider the gun protection.

Things have not developed as expected. In July 2021, Mianyang's only team in the province had a gun holding certificate and left Tongjiang, and he never returned. Without "foreign aid", he had to rely on local forces to obtain a legal certificate from more than 60 senior hunters or retired soldiers. All personnel purchased insurance. If there is a need for townships, it can be hired to go, and the cost will still be settled at 2,000 yuan per head.

Because there are no guns, the hunting team still adopts the most traditional way: the hunting dog drives and surrounds it, and after a while, after the wild boar is exhausted, the hunter will wait for the opportunity to cut and thorn with a long knife or spear. At the same time, the forestry department also purchased a dozen sets of stainless steel cages, putting some food "guarding the rabbits" in the cage, but for a long time, the sensitive wild boar is not a recruitment.

In July, various crops were mature, and wild boars frequently entered people's vision. Various ways of help calls more than day by day. The four teams move to all places. Every morning, when it is on the mountains, it will enter the mountain just in the morning.

Even if the means are primitive, there are Jiji reports. According to statistics, since July last year, the county has hunt more than 40 wild boars. Although it is less than the zero target value of 2021, it is not easy to achieve this result without the team and no shotgun.

The tug -in state is still continuing

At the same time as active attacks, it is a active defense strategy. The forestry department piloted in Zhicheng Town, and was equipped with a large -scale agricultural planting belt next to the mountains and forests. It was equipped with a stainless steel fence of more than 2,000 meters long. More than 100 sets of sound control alarm devices were distributed to some key villages and towns.

The villagers exhausted their wisdom and fought with wild boars for a long time. Xiao Houjiang, a villager in Houba Village, raised more than 60 yellow sheep. In order to prevent wild pigs, he adopted a circle of maintenance models, but one night more than 20 days ago, the wild boar came in from a gap in the barbed wire and heard the misery of the sheep. The cry, Xiao Houjiang chased the sound, the wild boar dropped a lamb that had been killed by 20 pounds of lamb, one ending into the pine forest, and the other two sheep with a slightly larger head was missing. Although he did not see the face of the "murderer", Xiao Houjiang judged from the sound of the wild boar, "It should be a big head, and the weight may be more than 300 pounds."

In addition to protecting the flocks, Xiao Houjiang also needs to prevent wild pigs from spoil corn and potatoes. He installed a tweeter in the ground and played the sound of guns, firecrackers, and whistles in a cycle. At first, it did have a certain deterrent effect, but the effect was lost after a long time. He often saw on the mobile phone surveillance video. Eat.

Xiao Houjiang heard that the county had a hunting team in the county and called the town government for help. It was told that it would take some time. "Corn quickly matured." Xiao Houjiang was anxious.

Yuanshanzi Village, Chengcheng Town, at an altitude of 1200 meters, because of the hunting operation in July last year, the wild boar stopped for a long time, but later the soil came back, and now returned to the state of seeing the tug of saw with the wild boar.

Where is the breakthrough?

The hunting power is limited and lacks powerful offensive means. Nanjiang County, which has long been plagued by wild boars, faces the same dilemma. The county has only one legally registered hunting team.

"The application of guns is extremely difficult, and it is almost impossible at present." An experienced veteran hunter revealed that under the constraints, using safe and efficient equipment is an important breakthrough direction."The beast clip is a disabled product. It has a metal gear. The more struggling, the tighter the bite, which will cause damage to the animals, and may even cut the legs and feet." But can the beast cover be used?This hunter believes that compared with the beast clip, the beast cover is much less harmful to the prey, and a alarm device is installed. After the hounds get information on the mobile phone, they can rush to the scene as soon asReduce to minimum.It is understood that since last year, relevant persons of Pakistani City and forestry have been investigated in Tongjiang and Nanjiang many times to discuss with experienced hunters.Essence

"For every plan, we are very cautious and are in -depth research. I believe we can find the breakthrough as soon as possible.
