MADRID: Spain’s northeastern region of Catalonia has barred access to a natural park after six wild boar found dead near Barcelona tested positive for African swine fever in the country’s first outbreak since 1994. The Collserola park, a major natural park in the region, was closed for all leisure activities and outdoor activities were restricted in 60 villages near the center of the outbreak, the Catalan Agriculture Ministry said late on Friday. Catalan authorities will deploy traps for wild boar and deploy police to enforce barriers to the area.
