Our Newest Addition - Wild Boaršt. ogledov:1922Having obtained our License to Keep Dangerous Wild Animals from the Malvern Hills District Council, we have just purchased a wild boar, sow, and four wild piglets from Cleeve House Farm. Here's the boar as he took his first prowl around his field.

Wild Boar's Snoutšt. ogledov:10197Look at the length of his snout -- almost longer than his body.

Wild Boaršt. ogledov:840Looking quite content in the tall grass.

Wild Sow Sleeping in the Tall Grassšt. ogledov:812Looks more like the African jungle than sunny Worcestershire. The wild boar wrap themselves in tall grass, and almost make a nest for themselves.

Richard Chamings (right) and Big and The Wild Boaršt. ogledov:1538Our newly-arrived wild boar has a prolapse, possibly from all the rich, new grass at his new home. Here Big (left) and our vet, Richard Chamings operate on the boar's rear. Tranquilising a wild boar proved to be quite a challenge: he just didn't want to lie down.

Richard Chamings With the Spring Hypodermic Needlešt. ogledov:905Getting close to the wild boar proved to be quite a challenge. Richard was finally able to to administer the tranquiliser using a spring-loaded syringe.

"New" Wild Boaršt. ogledov:1047We picked him up on August 27 2005. The existing wild sow doesn't really like him, but so far he's kept his distance and there haven't been any real fights.

Sunfloweršt. ogledov:840This sunflower -- and only this one -- is growing along the fence in the wild boar field. The pigs haven't even touched it.

Wild Boaršt. ogledov:1047This is the young wild boar, almost laughing at me. I'd rather him laugh than chase me . . .
