For information, wild boars love areas with access to water, marshy and wooded. These animals are social, they form large matriarchal herds consisting of females, cubs, as well as young and sick males. Older males live separately and come to the herd only during the mating season. In Europe, scientists have recorded numerous herds of wild pigs, which can be up to 100 individuals.
