African swine flu

[Jamouk]

Seems to be spreading across Europe faster and faster where i hunt we keep finding more and more cases there may be none left soon

 

[Free range rob]

It’s a poor do and I pray we keep it out of the uk, it would devastate not only the wild boar but also the pig industry

When it crosses into domestic, and it will then kiss the farms goodbye. Even carrion birds can carry it across the protective fencing so in theory a ferry from France could bring it into the UK and bobs yer uncle.

Found 5 more "deceased" within our hunting area within the last month

Is it deffo Swine Flu? I presume tests have been done?

 

[J Shave]

hi there
what part of Europe is this in ?.
was in Lithuania but almost clear now

 

[Jamouk]

Romania ... Yes so many tests you have to have everything passed by a vet as well before anything can enter food chain ( for a while now) and bag up about 4 or 5 samples to send them

 

[Ade8mm]

Aha. I thought it was Kent !

 

[Jamouk]

Aha. I thought it was Kent !

That may have been bigger news on here

 

[Ade8mm]

That may have been bigger news on here

I did wonder

 

[finnbear270]

That would have put the emphasis on "Kent variant"
