African swine fever (ASF) has been detected in many European countries since its introduction in Georgia in 2007. Serbia suffered its first case of ASF in the domestic pig population in 2019. At
the beginning of 2020, ASF was detected in wild boars in open hunting grounds in the southeastern
region of the country in districts along the country’s borders with Romania and Bulgaria. Since
then, all ASF outbreaks in wild boar were clustered in the population located in the same bordering
areas. Despite the newly implemented biosecurity protocols for hunters in 2019, ASF was detected
for the first time in June 2021 in the wild boar population located in an enclosed hunting ground
in the northeast region of the country. In this study, we reported the first ASF outbreak in a wild
boar population located in an enclosed hunting ground in close proximity to the Serbian–Romanian
border. The epizootiological data on the field investigation of the ASF outbreak, with descriptions of
the cli...nical signs and gross pathological lesions detected, including the total number as well as the
estimated age, sex, and postmortem interval, were analyzed. Clinical signs were detected only in
nine diseased wild boars, while in total, 149 carcasses were found in the open and enclosed part of
the hunting ground. In addition, 99 carcasses from which samples (parts of spleen or long bones)
were collected for molecular diagnostics (RT-PCR) were confirmed as ASF-positive. The results of
the epidemiological investigations indicate the central role of wild boar movements as well as the
constant risk of human-related activities in the countries bordering area.
