Wild Boar
The wild boar is an omnivorous mainly nocturnal animal closely related to the domestic pig. It was exterminated from the British Isles in medieval times. Wild boars were imported from the Continent for meat farming in the 1980s, and escaped animals established themselves in the wild in the early 1990s. On the Continent, wild boar cause significant damage to agriculture, as a result the wild boar can be harvested all year round. There are several populations recorded within the UK, all of our Boar are sourced from the Forest of Dean.
