I saw 3 baby wild boars today in ntu while jogging! From afar, I thought they looked like wild dogs, and there was more than one, so I decided to cross over to the other side of the road. And as I was nearer to them, the bigger they looked and they looked a bit like pigs. Then I realised they are baby wild boars! 3 of them! A driver in a van even stopped to snap some photos of them, and I thought the baby boars paused and posed for him to take photos. Hmmm no la, I think they were scared, and although I was over at the other side, I was a bit scared too. They aren't really small-sized and the mother wild boar should be somewhere around too. Die liao if they charged at me...
Oh where did I see them? At the area near Hall 10 there, the long stretch of road between Hall 10 and Hall 15, and they seemed to be happily having a stroll there on the pavement until they bumped into me and the driver...
I thought it was quite amazing! Yeah they re actually dangerous creatures, but it's amazing coz throghtout my NS period, I've never ever seen one single wild boar. Although I have been close to some of them last year unknowingly during reservist, when I was in some forest and EJ told me that he saw a mother wild boar bringing her 4 baby wild boars for a stroll, and they were actually quite near me. But I never saw them. And I should be quite heng that the mum never charged at me.
And in case u are wondering how a wild boar looks like...
Quite cute from afar la, honestly... haha!
