Boar

Wild boar, Boars, Warthog

A wild boar is a pig with its armor on: bristly, tusked and fiercely protective of its young. A boar dream is often about raw courage, stubborn strength and the urge to defend what's yours. In old European stories the boar was a worthy match for heroes and kings, and its head was served at grand winter feasts. Its keen nose finds food buried deep in the ground, so a boar rooting through the leaves may show you can sniff out what others walk right past.
