São Pedro do Sul wants to join pilot project for wild boar control

Diário de Viseu15 September 2026 at 12:00

The Municipal Council of São Pedro do Sul claimed yesterday integration into the list of municipalities that are part of the pilot project created by the Government for the control of the wild boar population.

The municipality considers it important to be part of this pilot project for wild boar control. The municipal council made this claim publicly.

The pilot project was created by the Government to address the issue of the increasing wild boar population. Not all municipalities participating in this program have been announced yet.

Why this matters

Wild boars frequently cause significant damage to local agriculture, destroying crops and pastures. Integration into this pilot project would allow the municipality to adopt more effective control measures to protect farmers and their property. This claim follows the creation of the government program and reflects the interest of rural councils in participating in wildlife management initiatives.

Government "commissioned the truth" about the future of pensions and "decided not to use it," IL accuses

The Liberal Initiative accused the Government of having commissioned studies on the future of pensions in Portugal and then deciding not to make them public, criticizing what it considered a lack of transparency. Mariana Leitão argued that making this data on Social Security available would be "treating the Portuguese as adults," counterpointing that the executive's actions go in the opposite direction.
