The spread of the most recent African Swine Fever (ASF) outbreak in Asia since late 2018 poses a significant threat to endemic pig species and socioeconomic security. Within domestic pigs and free-living Eurasian wild boars (both Sus scrofa) in Asia, ASF causes almost 100% case fatality. The ongoing ASF epidemic has so far caused the death of over one hundred million domestic pigs, causing unprecedented economic impacts on the global pork industry. Transmission among free-living wild boars has been reported, and transmission to threatened Asian pig species is probable but lacks research. Our assessment reveals a near-term risk for Southeast Asia's 11 endemic pig species, which have small population sizes and small ranges that may be insufficient to withstand the initial, lethal onslaught of the disease. The decline of pigs also triggers cascading impacts for endangered carnivores, plant communities, and livelihoods of millions of people. Our management recommendations include time-critical research themes, improved emerging infectious disease detection through site-based monitoring and surveillance paired with online reporting and proper carcass disposal.

非洲猪瘟威胁东南亚11种地方性野猪

自 2018 年底以来，最近在亚洲爆发的非洲猪瘟 (ASF) 疫情对地方性猪种和社会经济安全构成了重大威胁。在家猪和自由生活的欧亚野猪（Sus scrofa) 在亚洲，ASF 导致几乎 100% 的病死率。持续的非洲猪瘟疫情迄今已导致超过一亿头家猪死亡，对全球养猪业造成前所未有的经济影响。据报道，自由生活的野猪会传播，可能会传播到受威胁的亚洲猪种，但缺乏研究。我们的评估揭示了东南亚 11 种地方性猪种的近期风险，这些猪种的种群规模小，分布范围小，可能不足以抵御该疾病最初的致命袭击。生猪数量的减少还会对濒临灭绝的食肉动物、植物群落和数百万人的生计造成连锁影响。我们的管理建议包括时间紧迫的研究主题，
