"Hunting Wild Boar - Hunting a world citizen made easy" is an addition and compliment to the boar hunting book 'Hunting Boar And Wild Pigs The Definite Guide To More Successful Boar Hunting' by Peter Jaeckle, Ph.D. As a shorter, condensed version of the previous work, it is mainly based on new articles by the author and on new research published since the original book was first offered ten years ago.
The new work concentrates on habits and habitats of wild pigs, explains the signs they leave behind and describes in great detail how to find and harvest boar.
The new book is designed for new or less experienced boar hunters who want to know as much as possible about their quarry in the shortest period time. Readers of 'Hunting Wild Boar' will know more about wild pigs and how to hunt them than most of the other hunters around.
The author of the book has several others books or tutorials on boar hunting to his credit, among them 'Signs of the Beast' and 'Boar Rifles'. He is also the publisher and editor of a regular publication on boar hunting in California.
As true world citizens wild boar have presented hunters with a challenge and good food for over 10,000 years. There native range extends from the northern regions of Africa to Europe and as far east as Indonesia.Their domesticated cousins settled all continents together with man except Antarctica.
Wild boar are not indigenous to the Untied States. Here we have feral pigs that are the offspring of escaped domesticated pigs. They look very much like wild boar and can have the same demeanor.
Wild pig hunting is becoming more and more attractive to hunters. In fact, it is about to overtake deer hunting as the most popular big game animal in many states.
The reason is the intelligence of wild boar and wild pigs, their survival skills, their adaptability to many environments and food sources as well as the challenge they pose to hunters who pursue them. They also taste very well. Their meat has a low caloric value and a low fat content.
Hunting wild boar and wild pigs requires not only courage, for they are fierce in combat, but also an intimate knowledge of their habits and capabilities. Boar are a difficult quarry to hunt for a beginning or less experienced hunter.
