A couple of years ago I was watching a show on either Discovery or Animal Planet and they said that domesticated pigs will go feral in about 3 weeks if they are in the wild. They will grow tusks and their hair gets rougher and thicker.

Hunting boar is a dangerous sport. The boar spear, which has a crosspiece part way up the shaft, was invented because an enraged boar was notorious for charging, impaling himself on the spear, and then coming right up the shaft and killing the spear man.

We had a case of a boar killing a bear, here in North Carolina. They can range from 400 - 600 lbs. Very dangerous critters.
