Wild Boars Spotted Crossing Road Outside Shopping Mall In Poland
While wild boars are a common sight in Singapore, it’s rare to see a large herd of them travelling together.
In Poland, city folk were treated to the bizarre sight of a huge wild boar family walking in the urban jungle.
In a video seen on social media, an unusually large herd of wild boars was spotted trotting around outside a mall in Poland.
As they were wandering across the road, it seemed like a lighthearted family trip for the herd at first glance.
However, netizens mourned the loss of the wild boars’ natural habitat, which could explain why they were at the shopping mall in the first place.
