The wild boar is a sturdy, thick-coated member of the pig family native to much of Europe, Asia, and North Africa, and has also been introduced elsewhere. It has a muscular build, coarse dark fur, and prominent tusks used for digging and defense. Wild boars are highly adaptable omnivores, feeding on roots, fruits, small animals, and even carrion, and they play a major role in shaping their ecosystems through foraging behavior.
