AFCD appeals to public not to attempt to approach wild pigs
***********************************************************
Wild pigs are dangerous wild animals, especially those that have become accustomed to scavenging and being fed in urban areas, or are huge in size. They may bite or knock down members of the public while getting food from citizens.
In addition, wild pigs may also transmit zoonotic diseases, such as tuberculosis, hepatitis E, influenza A and Streptococcus suis infection, thereby posing threats to public health.
