Comparison of Three Methods to Assess the Potential for Bushpig-Domestic Pig Interactions at the Wildlife-Livestock Interface in Uganda.

Bushpigs () are considered a nuisance to farmers because of their crop raiding habits. Through their incursions into farmlands, they may interact with free-ranging domestic pigs and potentially cause transmission of infectious diseases such as African Swine Fever (ASF). The role of the bushpig in the epidemiology of ASF is poorly known and one of the gaps of knowledge is precisely the nature of interaction between bushpigs and domestic pigs.
