Exceptional postings Wolverine. Post #1817 captured my attention. I have always ( ever since I discovered the Russian taiga due to AVA ), considered the big three ( three kings ) of the R.F.E. to be the boar, the bear, and the tiger ( in no particular order ). In ancient Europe, before the crowning of the lion, the top two animals as seen on such places as shields and banners were the bear and the boar. I know that both the brown bear and the tiger hunt wold boar but I have always thought that the big tusker will sometimes be the victor. 
A little personal experience. My father-in-law once owned cows and hogs. One day, his playful 1800-pound Herford bull got playful with his biggest boar hog. Hogs are not playful. The boar gave the bull a gash on his face that caused the bull to bleed horribly. Even though my father-in-law attempted first aid, the big bull died within 24 hours.

( Had to edit due to my memory. This happened in the 1970's ).
