Hunting Wild Boar

Did you know . . .

that touching the head of a wild boar will bring luck? At least that is what villagers in Malaysia heard. The tested it when a sounder of boar came down from the mountains looking for food.

The bravest villagers touched the head of one of the animals. Since then he has won 10,000 Rupees. Since that time many other villagers have made physical contact with the boar - with varying success.

Some residents could touch them because the animals selectively resisted certain villagers. People who generally have poor poor luck in life were not able to get close to them. The boar greeted them with aggression.
