Wild boar (Sus scrofa) – a species of a large land mammal, the wild ancestor of the domestic pig, which inhabits the forests of Europe as well as Central and Southern Asia. Poland is the country which abounds with wild boars. The largest adult representative may reach even 2 metres in length and weigh nearly 300 kg. However, female wild boars are much smaller – they do not exceed the weight of 150 kg. In summer, when going for forest walks one may be lucky to see adult wild boars taking a stroll along forest paths with their young by their side. The scene is undoubtedly worth observing and enjoying the view, provided that you bear in mind that despite their friendly appearance they are still animals living in the wild.
