Last night when taking our dog out for his walk in the pitch black rural neighbourhood, we were stopped in our tracks immediately upon leaving the confines of our house by a booming bark. My best guess was that it is a wild boar and carefully retreated.

My wife and brother-in-law (the latter being somewhat of an expert on them) confirmed this morning that we do indeed have a wild boar living about 5 metres from our house.

Going to try and convince it to leave this morning before my brother-in-law takes more.. terminal.. actions. Can’t have a wild boar living quite so close to my daughters.
