Wild Boar Pilot Project

The County of Vermilion River is taking part in the Alberta Department of Agriculture and Rural Development Wile Boar Pilot Program.  The program is a fifteen month program commencing October 1, 2008 and ending on December 31, 2009.  Under this program, individuals are eligible to receive $50 per pair of wild boar ears.

To make an application, a person must:

  • Present the wild boar ears to the Agriculture Service Board (ASB).  The program will only accept pairs of ears.  Single ears, or partial ears are not eligible;
  • Give all mandatory submission information;
  • Submit a signed declaration.

Individuals are not eligible for the program if the animal was killed in a manner that contravened any laws (eg. bylaws, trespass, firearms, animal welfare).
