Did You Know . . .

that when hunting boar with dogs it is imperative to know what your dogs just bayed - wild pig or true boar. Bayed wild pigs focus on the dogs,  true wild boar concentrate exclusively on the hunter.
A hunter can slowly walk right up to a bayed wild pig without distracting the pig from focusing on the dogs as I found out first hand during some of my hunts. Do not attempt that with a bayed Eurasian boar.  He will charge head on explosively and viciously – at you, not at the dogs.
