There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

While adult Wild Boar are formidable in their own right, Leopards have been documented to kill them in some parts of Asia:

1) Although most were juveniles, an adult wild boar was part of the Leopard's diet in Iran:

2) The Sri Lankan Source I posted before mentioned that while there were 3 Sambar Stag killed by the Leopard, there was one adult wild boar killed by a Leopard:

3) A Leopard killed an adult male wild boar in India:

Edit: I got this from a different forum, but it was to show that a Leopard can kill an adult wild boar.
