The wild boar hunt in Tunisia is an exciting and traditional activity, primarily focused on controlling the population of wild boars that can damage crops and disrupt local ecosystems. The hunt typically takes place in the country’s forests and rural areas, with hunters using shotguns and slugs for safety and precision. Driven hunts, where beaters push the boars toward hunters positioned in strategic locations, are common. Hunters are required to wear fluorescent clothing for safety and bring their own weapons. The hunt is both challenging and thrilling, requiring skill and patience as wild boars are fast and elusive. It is a popular pastime that also helps maintain the balance between wildlife and agricultural needs in Tunisia.
