Abstract
The study aimed at evaluating the damages in crops of forest hunting zone localized in north-western part of Lublin Upland during past 8 hunting seasons. The evaluation also included the population dynamics of wild boars that are the main doers of damages as well as the level of hunting exploitation of the animal species. An increase of damages in crops — in respect both to quantities and surface — occurred during the evaluated period. Wild boars were the only perpetrators of damages. Differentiation of damages within vegetation season indicates their close association with agrotechnical dates related to plant sowing or planting, thus appearance of particular crops on fields, as well as their ripening and harvest times. Specific index of the wild boar’s feeding preferences within studied area points out that green lands and maize were the most, while potatoes were the least preferable crops. Despite of the intensified hunting pressure, a dynamic increase of wild boar population occurred during the investigated period. These results indicate that the reproduction potential of the animal species considerably increased, whereas the population gain was at the level of 150-200% of its spring status. Such gain index in combination with the crop damages should be taken into considerations at planning the hunting intensity for the species.
