Wild Boar

In 2008, 'Wild Boars at large' were declared a pest under the Agricultural Pests Act.

Wild Boars can be identified by their dark brown or black coat and coarse light hair on the head and mane. The Wild Boar's tail is straight, the ears are hairy and erect. They have a larger head and longer snout than domestic hogs.
