What is a "wild boar"?

The wild boar, also known as the wild pig, is a large, omnivorous mammal that is native to many parts of Europe, Asia, and North Africa. They are known for their distinct appearance, with a stocky body, bristly fur, and prominent tusks that can be used for defense or foraging. Wild boars are highly adaptable and can thrive in a variety of habitats, including forests, grasslands, and swamps. They are opportunistic feeders and will consume a wide range of foods, including plants, insects, small mammals, and even carrion. Wild boars are known for their intelligence, social behavior, and strong maternal instincts. They are also hunted for their meat and considered a game species in many parts of the world.
