En la costa de la provincia de Buenos Aires

This species that comes from the crossbreeding of the European wild boar with the feral pigs of the region, has populated very quickly the area assuming that it takes advantage of most of the ambient conditions to reach a quick demographic growth. In the place

abounding in tall grass, this animal finds a perfect environment to do its beds and to hide in during the day; it provides itself with water and food in plenty on the river shore and in the bounding forests. These animals are distinguished by the development of important canine teeth (tusks) which are much estimated trophies for sportive hunters, who come into this region with the hope of living an exciting hunt and obtain a trophy of a high quality which is difficult to find in the traditional places where the wild boar is hunted worldwide.
Generally, this kind of hunt is carried out through horseback riding because this is the only way that guarantees reaching the places where this animal lives, keeping in mind that the swampy characteristics of the territory do not allow the use of other vehicles or moving on foot.
