Hunting Boar And Wild Pigs

Did You Know . . .

That boar sows warn the sounder of imminent danger? When a human or other danger comes too close to their nest, piglets or feeding place, they puff loudly and vehemently. It raises the attention level of the other members of the group to a Stage 1 Alert.

If danger persists, the lead sow (the oldest female in the group) will sound the Stage 2 Alert: An aggressive, sharp grunt, which throws the sounder into full flight.
