King Arthur owned the hound Cavall in Welsh myth. His name is similar to a Latin word for "horse," indicating great size, strength, and speed. While hunting the giant boar Trwyth, Cavall left a permanent footprint on a stone cairn, which is impossible to remove.
Takeuchi Seihō (竹内 栖鳳, Japan, 1864-1942)
Wild #Boar , c.1938-40
Color woodblock print
“This print was a part of two groups of prints, produced by Unsodo in Kyoto between 1938-40. These prints were never reprinted because the blocks were transported from Kyoto to Tokyo during the war. They were lost due to the carpet bombing of Tokyo at the end of WWll.”

Mammalian adult females generally live longer than males in the wild, but it is poorly known whether sex differences in prenatal mortality occur. Douhard et al. find a higher embryonic mortality for females than for males in a wild boar population.

We got rooted.
Looks like the boars that have already done the neighbouring fields are moving up along the forest.
Didn't find any snail shells, so I guess they were munching mushrooms.
It's not as bad a mess as the neighbours and the meadow should recover on its own.
I wasn't going to render this sketch, but I spied a little discourse about how furries, in general, did a terrible job kicking the fash out of the fandom (with a notable exception of the babyfurs, they got their shit together when Elon tried to infiltrate them.)
Seriously, who invited them to the party?
Don't know where I'm going with this, but it's the party meme where everyone is wondering why you came to it. Just some critters who became the symbols of oppressive powers and institutions, trying to be gay and then the fascists come in wanting to appropriate them.
Wood burned my #Ares tribal boarhead shield design into wood. Dunno why I didn't realize this was a thing, but I love it.

Laisse moi te présenter, l'une des bêtes des royaumes: le sanglier des landes noires. À la différence de ses congénères d'autres grandes terres cette espèce de sanglier est plus grande, atteignant souvent les trois coudées au garrot. Féroce elle ne craint ni hommes ni lames chargeant tout intrus pénétrant sur son territoire, fût-il bien plus imposant que lui. Ce que seuls les érudits savent est que cette espèce de sanglier fait preuve d'une intelligence peu commune, tirant toujours avantage du terrain et connaissant les arcanes de brumes qui le dissimulent aux sens des plus fins limiers. #terresdilhyya #landesnoires #bestiaire #fantasy #fantasybeast #boar
Veel (negatieve) aandacht gaat naar de wolf in onze samenleving , waardoor het everzwijn wat onderbelicht is.
Wist je dat zijn gewroet een goede impact heeft op de natuur?
Bodems worden blootgelegd waardoor zaden makkelijker kiemen => nieuwe vegetatie => verjonging bossen.
Eerherstel aub.
