Therefore, an international systematic review using the Web of Science database (WoS; Clarivate Analytics, Philadepphia, PA, USA), including a quantitative synthesis (119 studies up to 11 November 2025, containing 181 experiments) of population reduction methods was conducted, with an emphasis on evaluating their effectiveness, selectivity, and animal welfare aspects relating to wild boar and feral pigs. The results demonstrate a significant increase in research interest for population control methods in recent years. The highest average effectiveness was observed for aerial shooting (56.2% of the population per month), followed by poison baiting (27.6%) and trapping (6.0%). Aerial shooting appeared highly selective in the reviewed contexts; however, together with poison baiting, it is generally not permitted under current European conditions. Trapping (6.0%) and individual hunting (3.9%) offer moderate effectiveness but are highly context-dependent. From a welfare perspective, the analysis indicated that no significant difference in effectiveness was detected between studies that included welfare or stress assessment and those that did not, indicating that consideration of animal welfare does not reduce control efficiency. The study concluded that the analysis did not identify a single universally applicable solution that combines animal welfare considerations with high effectiveness, highlighting a significant research gap. This underscores the urgent need for an effective and publicly acceptable method of reducing wild boar populations, or for the development of strategies that appropriately integrate multiple approaches. However, the interpretation of results is limited by heterogeneity in study design and variability in reported data."]},"AuthorList":{"@attributes":{"CompleteYN":"Y"},"Author":[{"@attributes":{"ValidYN":"Y"},"LastName":"Cukor","ForeName":"Jan","Initials":"J","Identifier":[{"@attributes":{"Source":"ORCID"},"@text":"0000-0002-0003-3174"}],"AffiliationInfo":[{"Affiliation":"Forestry &amp; Game Management Research Institute, Strnady 136, 252 02 J\u00edlovi\u0161t\u011b, Czech Republic."},{"Affiliation":"Faculty of Forestry and Wood Sciences, Czech University of Life Sciences Prague, Kam\u00fdck\u00e1 129, 165 00 Prague, Czech Republic."}]},{"@attributes":{"ValidYN":"Y"},"LastName":"Pa\u0159\u00edzkov\u00e1","ForeName":"Monika","Initials":"M","Identifier":[{"@attributes":{"Source":"ORCID"},"@text":"0000-0003-1847-2877"}],"AffiliationInfo":[{"Affiliation":"Forestry &amp; Game Management Research Institute, Strnady 136, 252 02 J\u00edlovi\u0161t\u011b, Czech Republic."},{"Affiliation":"Faculty of Forestry and Wood Sciences, Czech University of Life Sciences Prague, Kam\u00fdck\u00e1 129, 165 00 Prague, Czech Republic."}]},{"@attributes":{"ValidYN":"Y"},"LastName":"Linda","ForeName":"Rostislav","Initials":"R","Identifier":[{"@attributes":{"Source":"ORCID"},"@text":"0000-0002-9602-7915"}],"AffiliationInfo":[{"Affiliation":"Forestry &amp; Game Management Research Institute, Strnady 136, 252 02 J\u00edlovi\u0161t\u011b, Czech Republic."}]},{"@attributes":{"ValidYN":"Y"},"LastName":"Vacek","ForeName":"Zden\u011bk","Initials":"Z","AffiliationInfo":[{"Affiliation":"Faculty of Forestry and Wood Sciences, Czech University of Life Sciences Prague, Kam\u00fdck\u00e1 129, 165 00 Prague, Czech Republic."}]},{"@attributes":{"ValidYN":"Y"},"LastName":"Skot\u00e1k","ForeName":"Vlastimil","Initials":"V","Identifier":[{"@attributes":{"Source":"ORCID"},"@text":"0000-0002-6342-4623"}],"AffiliationInfo":[{"Affiliation":"Forestry &amp; Game Management Research Institute, Strnady 136, 252 02 J\u00edlovi\u0161t\u011b, Czech Republic."},{"Affiliation":"Faculty of Forestry and Wood Technology, Mendel University in Brno, Zem\u011bd\u011blsk\u00e1 1, 613 00 Brno, Czech Republic."}]}]},"Language":["eng"],"GrantList":{"@attributes":{"CompleteYN":"Y"},"Grant":[{"GrantID":"TQ03000038","Agency":"Technology Agency of the Czech Republic","Country":""},{"GrantID":"MZE-RO0118","Agency":"Ministry of Agriculture","Country":""},{"GrantID":"Excellent Team 2025","Agency":"Czech University of Life Sciences Prague","Country":""}]},"PublicationTypeList":{"PublicationType":[{"@attributes":{"UI":"D016428"},"@text":"Journal Article"},{"@attributes":{"UI":"D016454"},"@text":"Review"}]},"ArticleDate":[{"@attributes":{"DateType":"Electronic"},"Year":"2026","Month":"03","Day":"27"}]},"MedlineJournalInfo":{"Country":"Switzerland","MedlineTA":"Animals (Basel)","NlmUniqueID":"101635614","ISSNLinking":"2076-2615"},"KeywordList":[{"@attributes":{"Owner":"NOTNLM"},"Keyword":[{"@attributes":{"MajorTopicYN":"N"},"@text":"feral pig"},{"@attributes":{"MajorTopicYN":"N"},"@text":"overabundance"},{"@attributes":{"MajorTopicYN":"N"},"@text":"pest management"},{"@attributes":{"MajorTopicYN":"N"},"@text":"population reduction"},{"@attributes":{"MajorTopicYN":"N"},"@text":"wild boar"}]}],"CoiStatement":"The authors declare no conflicts of interest."},"PubmedData":{"History":{"PubMedPubDate":[{"@attributes":{"PubStatus":"received"},"Year":"2026","Month":"2","Day":"11"},{"@attributes":{"PubStatus":"revised"},"Year":"2026","Month":"3","Day":"24"},{"@attributes":{"PubStatus":"accepted"},"Year":"2026","Month":"3","Day":"25"},{"@attributes":{"PubStatus":"medline"},"Year":"2026","Month":"4","Day":"14","Hour":"6","Minute":"32"},{"@attributes":{"PubStatus":"pubmed"},"Year":"2026","Month":"4","Day":"14","Hour":"6","Minute":"31"},{"@attributes":{"PubStatus":"entrez"},"Year":"2026","Month":"4","Day":"14","Hour":"1","Minute":"3"},{"@attributes":{"PubStatus":"pmc-release"},"Year":"2026","Month":"3","Day":"27"}]},"PublicationStatus":"epublish","ArticleIdList":{"ArticleId":[{"@attributes":{"IdType":"pubmed"},"@text":"41976002"},{"@attributes":{"IdType":"doi"},"@text":"10.3390\/ani16071023"},{"@attributes":{"IdType":"pii"},"@text":"ani16071023"},{"@attributes":{"IdType":"pmc"},"@text":"PMC13072410"}]},"ReferenceList":[{"Reference":[{"Citation":"Barrios-Garcia M.N., Ballari S.A.
