Médio Tejo wants to join wild boar control project

Observador14 September 2026 at 17:05

The Intermunicipal Community of Médio Tejo expressed interest in joining the Government's pilot project for wild boar population control. This intention was communicated by the CIM do Médio Tejo, which represents 11 municipalities in the region.

The 11 municipalities covered are: Abrantes, Alcanena, Constância, Entroncamento, Ferreira do Zêzere, Mação, Ourém, Sardoal, Tomar, Torres Novas and Vila Nova da Barquinha.

The concrete measures to be implemented, the specific territories to be covered by the pilot program, or the rules that will regulate this wild boar control initiative are not yet known.

Médio Tejo is one of the regions most affected by wild boar-related problems, having been one of the first intermunicipal communities to express interest in joining the Government's program.

Why this matters

The municipalities of Médio Tejo are seeking to join a government program to control the wild boar population, which has caused significant damage to local agriculture and accidents on the region's roads. The adherence of all 11 municipalities demonstrates a coordinated response to a problem that directly affects farmers and residents, although concrete measures have not yet been defined.
