Wild Boar

The boars are animals that we see as sweet and of captivity. When those escape and start living on their own in the nature, they get adapted faster than any other animal, becoming wild pigs.

They are extremely aggressive and defend themselves and their nestling fearlessly or carelessly. When wild, they develop a longed skull and their legs grow more and their fangs get sharper and sharper for self-defense. Accidents in occasional encounters with human beings are common. They are present throughout the world, presenting different characteristics according to their geographic location.

They can present a variety of sizes, while the Argentine Wild Boar presents sizes from 90 to 150cm length and can weigh from 50 to 90kg, other sub-species such as the European can reach in regions like Russia and Romania the 200cm length and weigh up to 300kg. Their fur also may vary, however, are more easily found with darks colors that vary from black to different shades of brown.
