Wild Boar Farming
Wild boar farms in Saskatchewan are newly regulated under The Animal Production Regulations. All wild boar farms are required to apply for a licence by January 1, 2025. After this date a moratorium will be in place and no new wild boar farm licence applications will be accepted. There is no charge for a wild boar licence.
All wild boar farmers are required to meet regulatory requirements including:
- Annual inspections;
- Enclosure/fencing;
- Reporting any escapes from captivity; and
- Maintaining records.
Reporting an escape:
- Producers are required to report escapes directly to their local Game Farm Investigator.
- If members of the public see a wild boar outside of a fence, it should be reported to SCIC through the Feral Wild Boar Control Program.
