Assessing wild boar presence and activity in a monitoring specific area of Campania region using camera traps

Abstract

We have measured the passage times of a wild boar family group along a known track and in two years we evaluated the frequency of the time slots in which pubescent and adult females meets the adult males to mate. Results show that family group of wild boars stably structured, has frequented the specific point in constant time slots and this fact helps researchers to estimate a dynamic behaviour of local population. This measurements and results have a concrete impact on management of the wild population.
