For the farm animal, see Pig.

Boars are omnivorous wild pigs. They are quite pervasive, being found in temperate forests, temperate swamps, tropical rainforests, tropical swamps, boreal forests, and cold bogs. If slain, they can be butchered for 119 pork and 36 pigskin.

Summary

Wild boars are pen animals. Once tamed, pen animals cannot and do not need to be trained any further. But if left outside of a pen or caravan hitching spot, pen animals will eventually roam outside your colony. Making a caravan is not required to tie animals to a caravan hitching spot.

Wild boars can appear in raids alongside yttakin pirates. Note that "raider" boars are still unable to travel through fences and barricades. This can alter their pathing. If the animal raider cannot reach a better target because of fences/walls, it will start bashing at structures randomly.

Analysis

Combat

Boars are surprisingly powerful for their size, though boars will rarely fight. They have a 0% manhunter on hunt chance, so they can't revenge on colonists. As pen animals, they will never be attacked by raiders. When they do attack, such as in manhunter packs, boars are threatening.

They have a damage output higher than that of a megaspider, with a movement speed equivalent to that of an unarmored human. Boars tend to be able to put up a good fight against predators such as timber wolves and Wargs, often severely injuring, occasionally downing, or even outright killing them on rare occasions.
