Are there wild boars in Israel?
Asked 3 years ago
We had some people tell us that there are some boars in Haifa and that we should be careful. Is this true? Are boars native to Israel?

Yeah, according to locals, there are wild boars in Haifa, Israel. In 2019, about 1328 sightings were reported to the authorities. I will advise you to listen to the warnings and be very careful. However, researchers claim that boars in Israel originated in Europe and were brought to Israel about 3000 years ago.
