I Know That Wild Boar Can Grow Big,

according to Wikipedia,


wild boars in Eastern Europe can reach brown bear-like sizes of 270 kg and 118 cm in shoulder height, and males in regions like Russia’s Ussuriland have been recorded to weigh 300–350 kg and measure 125 cm in shoulder height, but I was not expecting to see one this big, weighing in at over 500 kilograms, in fact fellow hunters determine the animal’s precise weight and size, a mind-blowing 535 kilograms and a shoulder height of 1.7 meters, the animal was brought down by Peter Maximov, a hunter from Chelyabinsk, Russia, November 13th, 2015 which I guess was the luckiest day of his hunting career, the boar might have another take on that however, to see more or if you fancy taking up boar hunting have a look at the Imperial Hunting web site.
