What is the definition of wildboar? 🙋

👉 Wildboars are large herbivorous mammals native to much of Europe, Russia, Siberia and Asia Minor. Their coats are distinctive with short, broad fangs on their lips that they use for tearing through tough grasses and shrubs. In English, wildboars are often called "wild" because they roam freely throughout vast wilderness areas without being hunted or trapped by humans. In addition to their role as herbivores, wildboars play an important ecological role in supporting a wide range of species including moose, deer, raccoons, foxes and other large mammals. Wildboars are also known for their ability to survive under extremely harsh conditions such as long periods of frost or waterlogged environments. They are generally slow runners and have a distinctive way of "crawling" up steep cliffs rather than rushing down them like much smaller herbivores. The name wildboar comes from the Old French word "wild", which means wild and ungainly, while the Latin words "brachium" and "corpus" are derived from Greek and mean "thorny" and "cutting-edge", respectively.
