Wild boar on the living room couch: "Call the police"

There are things that don’t exist at all: Imagine you unlock your front door and there is a wild boar. That’s exactly what a woman in Hagen experienced.

Hagen – A bit exhausted, but probably grunting contentedly, a wild boar has made itself comfortable on her living room couch – what a woman from Hagen experienced is almost unbelievable.

Even the police expressly assured in their message that it was “not a joke”: When the 39-year-old unlocked her front door at around 1:20 p.m., she faced a full-grown wild boar that stretched out its rear end towards her.

The pig was trapped

The frightened woman quickly closed the door and called the police. When a patrol car crew arrived on site, the stately Bache, weighing around 60 kilograms, had already devastated the interior and then settled comfortably on the living room sofa. The animal probably got into the apartment through an open patio door, the officials suspect. When it fell shut, the pig was trapped.

Wild boar could “look cute” but also become “very dangerous,” police warned. Not least because of this, they called a hunter for help in order to lure the animal into freedom without stress. In the end, the black coat trolled and found its way back into nature unharmed. “Wild boar usually freshen in the spring. During this time, they protect their young from enemies. Do not approach young animals, keep your distance,” the officials advised. “And if one appears in your living room … then call the police.”
