Abstract: During the period between 15 July 2004 and 19 Jan. 2006 we monitored and analysed the home ranges of the wild boars (Sus scrofa ussuricua) in the south facing slopes of the mountains in Lesser Khingan,in the Northeast of China, trapping the wild boars and using wireless radio, R2V, ArcView and SPSS. Seasonal changes impact on the home ranges of the wild boars. The home ranges for the spring and autumn are greater than those for winter and no difference was found between spring and summer. Because of the heat period of the adult females in autumn and the separation of the immature males in spring home ranges increasing during those periods. Members of a family have bigger home ranges than do nonmembers. The ranges for subadult wild boars depend mainly on the families;if the family home range is big,correspondingly the ranges of subadult wild boars is big.
