Wild boar hunting is done for food and for wildlife management. Hunters go after these dangerous animals with spears, bow and arrows and guns. Popular ways to hunt include driving along the road, building tree stands or a bait trap and using specially trained dogs. Wild boars make a formidable opponent. They like dense, thick brush along waterways and riverbeds because of the safety it provides. Boars can charge without warning from this thick cover endangering both the hunters and hunting dogs. This meat is a delicacy in much of the nation; many families rely on hunting to keep meat on the table. In some areas, these out-of-control pests damage crops and natural habitats of endangered species of animals and birds. Wild boars have no natural predators and will soon overrun an area without the intervention of humans and hunting. Some areas require hunting licenses and others allow hunters to take as many of the animals as they wish. Outdoor adventure activities in this hunting adventure include using a spear, bow and arrow or rifle. Spears have been used for over 40,000 years and are a symbol of power; most spears used for boar hunting are 65 inches long with a 6- to 8-inch head and weigh 4 to 6 pounds. The spear is placed on the ground and the boar impales itself. An arrow must be accurately placed to reach a vital organ. Rifles allow the hunter to maintain a safer distance. Popular ways of hunting include driving along a road looking for the animals, building a platform in a tree along a trail they use or putting out corn and other food to attract them to an area. Special dogs are trained to find these animals; they follow a scent and howl to alert the hunter of their success. Wild boar hunting is necessary for population control and feeds many hungry families. The retelling of the adventures hunting excursions make quiet evenings exciting.
