Africa's swine fever catches wild boar to prevent its spread, while it has been quiet for more than two months. In order to prevent the spread of the virus, it is important to treat the dead body surely.

A mountain in Cheorwon-gun, Gangwon-do.

The wild boar was captured on March 5, about three kilometers from the private line, and was buried after being infected with the African swine fever virus.

I went to the burial site of the infected boar.

The fence is loose,

[What is it, this?]

The wild boar corpse, which has undergone considerable decay, is left nearby.

The distance between the wild boar infected with the virus and the animal mortality we found was only five steps away.

The quarantine authorities sent 131 people to the area last weekend, searching for dead bodies.

Infected wild boars usually die within ten days, so it is important to find the dead body quickly to identify the virus.

The longer it is left, the higher the risk of spreading the virus through other wildlife and the greater the concern about the surrounding land and water pollution.

Government surveys have also detected viruses in water and soil in Paju, where dead bodies were found.

Not only are they caught wild boars, but they also have to focus more on the search and management of mortals.
