Two suicides and a dying wild boar have been found in a small area in Fagersta.
Now the Norwegian Veterinary Institute (SVA) wants to get samples in quickly, writes Jaktjournalen.
– We receive less than 100 suicide wild boars per year, but then it is about wild boars from different places. When there is a concentration like this, it is important that we quickly get in meat samples that we can analyze, says Erik Ågren, assistant state veterinarian at SVA to the newspaper.
