The Bill 4.253/2025 Proposes to Transfer to the States the Control of the Wild Boar Population, Removing the Ibama the Attribution of Management and Supervision

The ruralist caucus will request urgency in the vote on Bill 4.253/2025, which transfers to the States and the Federal District the control of the wild boar population.

The proposal authorizes hunting, slaughter, and other methods of managing exotic species, in addition to regulating the commercialization of products and by-products resulting from these actions.

Currently, control is the responsibility of the Brazilian Institute of the Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (Ibama). If the bill advances, the responsibility will pass to local governments. The caucus aims to expedite the vote in response to the ruling that the Federal Supreme Court (STF) will make on the constitutionality of state control of wild boars and other invasive species.

The bill’s author, Congressman Alceu Moreira (MDB-RS), stated that invasive species cause economic damage of R$ 15 billion per year to the country. He also highlighted that the wild boar population has grown at a record pace in the last year, even after the slaughter of 500,000 animals.

Arrests for Illegal Hunting in Mato Grosso do Sul

While the debate advances in Congress, the Environmental Military Police (PMA) arrested two men for illegal hunting of European wild boar in Juti, 320 kilometers from Campo Grande. The duo was fined R$ 18,000.

The suspects, aged 60 and 43, were in a pickup truck and were heading to a farm when they were approached. They carried expired authorizations from Ibama and did not have permission from the farm owner. The .327 caliber firearms, ammunition, and a night vision monocular were seized.

Both were taken to the Naviraí Police Station. Ibama has allowed the slaughter of wild boars since 2013 but requires specific certifications for the management of the species.
