When close to a boar, a status tag that shows whether they are 'wild' or 'tame' and whether they are 'hungry', 'happy', 'frightened' or 'acclimatizing'. 
Approaching a wild boar without sneaking will always frighten it and cause it to attack the player. Boars will continuously chase the player until the player runs far enough away for the boar to lose sight of the player. Once the boar is no longer chasing the player, its second status will return to 'hungry'. They have a repeating combat pattern: charge, retreat, charge, retreat. The distance they retreat seems fixed, and is only affected when their path is obstructed. Understanding that a boar is only temporarily retreating when targeting a player can make herding them easier.
When tamed, boars seek freedom. If a tamed boar sees an opening within their fenced area, they will run toward through it. This can be used to corral the boars from place to place.
== Breeding ==
Boars can breed, provided the boar is happy and well-fed with carrots or other crops, along with there being another boar at least within three meters, and no more than five boars within at least 10 meters. Once the conditions are met, the boar will accumulate love points with one another until the pregnancy starts. Any boar can become pregnant, which means that if two boars breed and one becomes pregnant, they still have the ability to breed and get the other pregnant. Pregnancy will last a minimum of 1 minute, after which the birth of the baby boar is random chance. The level of the baby boar is determined by the boar that was pregnant with it.
Once born, the baby boar will take 50 minutes to mature into an adult.

== Notes ==
* Wild boar are afraid of fire, including torches, and will enter the 'frightened' state when it is nearby. As of version 0.206.5 fire no longer frightens tamed animals.
* As written on a Runestone: "This land is hard and wild but we who are brought here are harder still. Take comfort, traveller, in the gifts before you, the good wood and stone, the fruits and flowers of the forest. Look also to the wild boar who roam these lands. They fear fire and the hand of man but they can be taught to obey it. Go quietly to them and let them eat of your stock. Roots of the ground are their pleasure."
* 2-star boars are extremely rare and great for getting leather scrap and boar meat via breeding.
* Boars will not eat yellow mushrooms.
