Wildschwein

The ancestor of domestic pigs, wild boars are robust, omnivorous ungulates weighing up to 200 kg, found from Western Europe through Asia and North Africa in diverse habitats including forests, wetlands, and grasslands.

Their rooting behavior disturbs soil and vegetation, influencing forest structure and seed germination significantly.
