Killer Wild Pigs of Spain - ExPat life in Andalusia

Wild boars— jabalíes —are no longer just creatures of Spain's forests. In this episode, I explore how these powerful animals have moved into cities like Barcelona and the Costa del Sol, why they're losing their fear of humans, and the growing خطر they pose—from street encounters to deadly traffic accidents. I look at the history of wild boar in Spain, their role in hunting and food culture, and what's driving their aggressive behaviour today. Plus, what you should do if you come face to face with one. If you live in Spain—or plan to visit—this is a story you need to hear.
