Herd of Cows Adopts Young Wild Boar in France
In a touching example of the lion lying down with the lamb, a young wild boar has been adopted by a herd of cows in France.
.
For the past week, the young wild boar, who has been christened "Clovis," has been co-existing peacefully with a herd of cows in a field in the Breton district of Lohuec.
.
He appears to have been adopted by the herd, and lies happily down in the grass next to his bovine chums. Local farmer Richard Crassin has even been feeding Clovis along with the herd.
