Wild boar are terrorising Barcelona residents and the singer Shakira was attacked by two wild boar in a park. This is a problem across Europe. They should legalise hunting these beasts before there is a death .. |

No.
Leave em alone.
Or are we saying that human life is the only life that counts. Don't want to number attacked, don't go where they live.
Problem solved. |

Wild boar kill people often in France, the hunters that hunt them are also killing people. Cyclists and only a few weeks ago a guy driving his car on a motorway was shot although he did survive. Boar also cause huge amounts of damage to crops. Whilst I'm a great believer in live and let live they really are classed as a pest here. They really do wreak havoc and destruction. |

There is no means of population control for them in most countries.
They have big litters and are large and aggressive.
Deer are controlled so the population is strong and stable and it should be the same for boar.
We had a wild boar male that we crossed with our sows. He was a fantastic lad.
Like deer they can be eaten too so its not just killing for nothing. Culling is sensible. |

Exactly this, since we eradicated apex predators . I was lambasted on a fb group for suggesting it would be nice to see a return of wolves. Seems the wolves agreed and have been sighted. |

We had some in the forest near my childhood house.. in fairness they can be scary beasts and sometimes they did roam way too close. Watch out when they have young ones.. they are so protective ! I had a couple of frightening encounters. Not sure what's the just and least cruel solution. |

Leave them be. They were extinct once! Bloody buggers came back though. Got to admire that kind of determination.

Leave them alone ...
This is what happens when we start destroying their traditional land (forests,woods etc.. )
Northern Spain and France is where they've always been. Live in harmony or stay away |

I'll bear that in mind next I'm out with mine, but then so is poaching in general illegal. No questions asked where the pheasant came from that I have in the freezer. |

Herd them towards the Essex area "
We have Epping Forest, Hatfield Forest and Forest Gate. There is a reason that I choose to live well away from them.... |

Read again, Did I say that the pheasant was poached? It could have come from a game dealer. There's one in Swansea market. |

What happens when we encroach on their territory, we then get attacked. |

You indicated that you hunt with a crossbow...
If your pheasant came from a game dealer then why not state that fact rather than try to backtrack on your original statement?
If you wish to engage in illegal hunting then good luck to you |

There and other countries in Europe all of which hunt them as a form of herd control. Those who think the world can be run on a natural non kill basis are kidding themselves. Our population levels verses arable land and crop capacity just do not work. Thousands of years of human intervention means the two are incompatible now. Even if they were I doubt many here would give up their comforts likes and life expectancies. To revert to the form of subsidence to accomidate their return to the wild. No coffee reduced range of fresh foods fruit veg shortages plus much much more.

I think it was last year in Cannock woods, a male, female and babies were found. More than likely escaped or been let loose by someone. Were taken to a sanctuary afterwards |

I'm not exactly getting bored with this now, but the leg of lamb that I've had brazing in the oven on 100 degrees since eight o'clock this morning is about to take priority.
Here's another bit of useless information for you. Human beings are supposed to taste like pork, that's why the cannibals in darkest Africa actually called humans, "Long Pig," so if you can't afford wild boar for dinner, you can always roast one of neighbours that you don't particularly like, and there probably wouldn't be a lot to draw between them for flavour. |

Here they are hunted by hunters with hunting guns.

"Consider carefully. They're bloody useful when it comes to disposing of a body.
Do you speak from experience?! " m
There’s a horrific video on YouTube. An old Soviet soldier speaks of the murder of two German girls in WW2 and their disposal via pigs. Absolutely horrible especially as they were basically just kids. |

Sure they not as dangerous as us humans? X"
They're dangerous IF they feel threatened. Basically if you don't bother a boar it won't bother you (they're instinctively afraid of humans) |

Mentioned in pirates of the Caribbean.
Have had to explain why I laugh at that bit a lot. |

They should be hunted legally to bring the numbers down and reduce the danger to humans and especially young children who should be able to play in the woods without the threat from these evil monsters |
