Ray Mears 272 Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 i no there are some good numbers in the Gloucestershire way if thats any help Quote Link to post Share on other sites
potstillgold 2 Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 I'd say the distribution is fairly sporadic in UK. Where Boar have been farmed in the first instance and moving out from there. Devon to Sutherland in the far north of Scotland in isolated patches. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kreet 0 Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 heard there are a few in perth scotland but never seen any if there were then yeeehaa!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trappa 517 Posted November 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 Looking forward to then getting to the numbers here that they are down south. I think from sort of leeds upover there are loads of woods and forests all the way right up to scotland and obviously scotland is all woods and forests so once established they could provide some amazing sport.

Trappa Check out www.britishwildboar.org.uk It's a really good site and shows distribution so far amongst a whole load of other good stuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
