AB - Human activities such as urbanization, agricultural expansion, and climate changeaccelerate habitat fragmentation, which restricts the spatial movement of wide-ranging species suchas wild boars (Sus scrofa) and weakens population connectivity, ultimately threatening ecosystemstability. Wild boars, in particular, possess high environmental adaptability and reproductive capacity,making them more likely to expand into human-influenced areas such as farmlands and urban fringes. This movement may increase the risk of spreading zoonotic diseases such as African Swine Fever(ASF). This study developed a density-based simulation model that integrates the ecological andbehavioral traits of wild boars with their spatial use patterns, aiming to analyze the spatial interactionsbetween population dynamics and resource utilization. The simulation results revealed that overtime,wild boars formed clusters in areas with concentrated food resources, leading to rapid depletion ofresources and localized population density peaks. Individuals exhibited selective spatial use based onfood availability and tended to avoid areas where resources had been exhausted. Notably, areas ofhigh population density may function as hotspots for pathogen maintenance and transmission. Accordingly, the findings of this study suggest the potential utility of the model as a basis foridentifying ASF risk zones and prioritizing ecological restoration areas.
