Chen Jianfeng pointed out on the Hong Kong and Taiwan program that the sterilization program was launched at the end of 2017, but it still could not keep up with the breeding speed of wild boars. Most of them take the initiative to grab food and bite people for food, most of which have occurred in recent years.
He emphasized that the action is to protect the safety of the public, and that actions will continue to be captured in the future and public education will be strengthened.
