“…Roic et al (2005) found that adult wild boar had a higher seroprevalence to PPV (70%) than juveniles (31%), as observed in our study, together with PIV. Similar differences were found for M. hyopneumoniae, but adults and juveniles had higher seroprevalence.…”

“…Antibodies to PRRSV were higher than those previously described in free-ranging wild boars (1.3-1.7%) (Ruiz-Fons et al 2008). PPV seroprevalence was also high but similar to that previously described in other areas Roic et al 2005;Ruiz-Fons et al 2006;Vengust et al 2006). The high infection rate in domestic pig herds, especially with PCV2 and PPV, suggests that they could be the source of infection for the wild boars (Ruiz-Fons et al 2008).…”

“…Effects of PPV on wild boar populations. PPV is widely distributed in European wild boar and feral pig populations, with seroprevalences ranging from 14% to 77% (Liebermann et al, 1986;Payeur et al, 1989;New et al, 1994;Lutz and Wurm, 1996;Saliki et al, 1998;Gipson et al, 1999;Roic et al, 2005;Ruiz-Fons et al, 2006b;Vengust et al, 2006). Despite serological evidence of PPV antibodies in wild boar populations, no direct effects of PPV have been described although PPV seroprevalance in female wild boars has a negative influence on ovulation rate (Ruiz-Fons et al, 2006b).…”

There has been a worldwide increase in the number and geographical spread of wild boar populations in recent decades leading to an increase in both the circulation of disease agents and greater contact with domestic animals and humans. Diseases affect the population dynamics of wildlife but the effects of most viral diseases on the European wild boar are largely unknown. Many viral diseases present in domestic pig populations are also present in wild boars where they can provide a disease reservoir, as is clearly the case with classical swine fever, but little is known about other viral diseases such as porcine circovirus diseases or hepatitis E. This review considers the current scientific knowledge of the effects of viral diseases on wild boar populations and their rôle as potential disease reservoirs. The focus is on those viral diseases of domestic swine and wild boars that are included as notifiable by the Office International des Epizooties (OIE).

“…Although the occurrence of some viral disease agents in wild boars in Croatia has been documented (Zupancic et al, 2000(Zupancic et al, , 2002Roic et al, 2005;Lipej et al, 2007) these studies were mostly based on a limited sample size or geographic area. It is important to expand and update this data and, especially, to consider emerging diseases.…”

ABSTRACT:We determined prevalence of antibody to selected viral pathogens important for domestic pigs and livestock in 556 wild boar (Sus scrofa) sera collected during 2005-06 and 2009-10 in four counties in Croatia. These counties account for an important part of the Croatian commercial pig production and have a high density of wild boars. Samples were tested for antibodies to porcine parvovirus (PPV), Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV), porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), swine influenza virus, porcine respiratory and reproductive syndrome virus (PRRSV), porcine respiratory coronavirus (PRCV), transmissible gastroenteritis virus, and swine vesicular disease virus (SVDV). Antibodies to all of the infectious pathogens except SVDV were detected. There was a statistically significant difference in prevalence between the two periods for PPV, ADV, PCV2, PRRSV, and PRCV, with a higher prevalence of PPV and ADV in the 2009-10 period (P,0.05). During the same period, the prevalence of PCV2, PRRSV, and PRCV was lower (P,0.05). Our results provide information on the current disease exposure and health status of wild boars in Croatia and suggest that wild boars may act as a reservoir for several pathogens and a source of infection for domestic pigs and other livestock as well as humans, especially for ADV.
