In the evening of an early-June day, two of my friends and myself were walking in La Cloche Nauretum (http://www.naturetum.com/) along the Agénie alley.
As we approached La Martinière lake, we suddenly realized that on the bank left to the lake more than twenty baby wild boars (Sus scrota) were playing together. At least three families considering the differences in size and in robe colors. They in fact were running after each other in a dance-like perfect circle. It seems unbelievable that such a play occurs and more even that it could be observed.
For more than fifteen minutes, and from a distance of less than fifty meters, we could watch this extraordinary show.
Then warning calls came out from the near-buy common broom (Cytisus scoparius) bushes, presumably from mother boars. Mothers may have suddenly realized that we humans were so closed, and were urging their progeniture to hide back to the bushes, which babies did, though rather slowly as if regretfully.
The theater representation was over but the exquisite remembrance is high in our hearts. And I am happy that my friends were there and can corroborate this incredible reporting!
I would like to know if anyone else in the World had a similar experience?
