Description

Have you been lucky enough to spot a Wild Boar? These powerful animals have stocky bodies with a double layer of grey/brown harsh, bristly hair. Mature males have tusks that protrude from the mouth. 

Our Wild Boar soft toy has been crafted to look just like the real thing, a unique and adorable gift – an unusual soft woodland toy sure to be adored by animal lovers.

Wild boars are very similar to pigs, but they have stocky, powerful bodies with a double layer of grey-brown fur. Their top layer is made up of wiry, bristly hair and the under layer is a softer, short coat. Their tusks are very distinctive, pointing upwards from their lower jaw, and are used to protect themselves from predators. They’re nocturnal animals so they’re most active at night. That’s when they’ll hunt for their food. They love seeds and fruits but also mice, lizards and snakes. 

Fast Fact 

Male wild boars have an extra tusk on the upper lip which they use for sharpening the lower tusk. 

Habitat 

Woodland. 

Believe it or not… 

Wild Boars can spend up to 12 hours sleeping in the day! 

    Millie - Head Farm Hand

    “I joined the team in September of 2021 as a Farm Hand.  This was my first proper job and the experience was very insightful as working with animals there is never a dull moment. I have always loved animals and have had many different animals growing up such as guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs and horses so I knew the animal industry was a career I would like to be involved in. Since joining Kew Little Pigs Farm I have had the opportunity to care for the animals and share my knowledge with all the customers that have visited the farm. I was promoted to Head Farm Hand in January 2023.

    I look forward to my journey here at Kew Little Pigs Farm and hope to see you on the farm soon!”
