A video of a wild boar getting its behind stuck in between a fence has been circulated online. The video showcases the animal being helped by an uncle, who was seen giving the animal a little push from behind to help it get to the other side in one piece.
An online user on Sunday (Nov 6) took to a Facebook group to share a video of yet another funny animal sighting in Singapore. The one-minute video featured two wild boars in a green space. The first one was seen jumping through the railings of a fence and getting stuck. The second boar then jumped through another hole and also got stuck, this time for longer than the first one.
An uncle who seemed to be out for a walk in the park was seen coming into the camera frame. Upon seeing the animal struggling to get through the railing, he gave a little help.
The video did not show the fate of the animal–whether it was able to get out of its little mishap.
According to National Parks Singapore, wild boars, which are native to Singapore, can weigh up to 100 kilograms. The government organization reminds the public that though the animals may come across as very shy, they are still wild, and their behaviours can be unpredictable. Because of this, people are encouraged to refrain from approaching the animals so as not to make them feel provoked or cornered.
A handful of netizens had a laugh at the video, though, with some making comments pretending to speak for the wild boar. “Help me, human…I’m stuck,” said one.
