Elektrický ohradník jako nástroj ochrany lesa před škodami divokým prasetem (Sus scrofa)
Hvižď, Filip
The study was dedicated to investigating the use of an electric fence as a possibility to regulate the spatial activity of wild boar and the related protection against damage caused by this species. The research was carried out in the Moravský Krumlov nature reserve, where an electric fence was built and its effectiveness in controlling the movement of wild boars was monitored. Cameras were installed to collect data. Out of the total number of 663 contacts of wild boars with cameras at the time when the electric fence was triggered 75 of them were recorded inside the fenced area, which is less than 12 %. After analysing the obtained records, the reaction of the wild boars to the fence was evaluated. During a more detailed analysis of the obtained data, it was found that the most common reaction of an affected adult boars is to run away from the fence (more than 60 % of cases), on the other hand, breaking through the fence was minimal. Furthermore, the variability of the reaction to the fence was determined in time, when the boars did not perceive the fence at first, but with the passage of time boars began to maintain a distance.
