Where seen? This large hairy beast is quite common in our wilder places but rarely seen as they are shy. It is more active in the early morning and late evening. Several may gather under fruiting trees to forage for fallen fruits.
It is the largest resident land mammal in Singapore and found in forest, scrubland and mangroves. According to Baker, it was believed to be extinct in Singapore, and current populations were probably started by individuals swimming in from Malaysia across the Johor Straits. They are found on Pulau Ubin, Pulau Tekong and the Western Catchment Area and also recorded in Changi, Lim Chu Kang and the Central Catchment Area. Globally, these wild boar are found from Europe, north Africa and most of Asia.
Features: Head and body 1.5-2m, up to 200kg. Typical pig-shaped covered with bristly hairs with a mane on the neck and back that bristles upright when the animal is threatened. Adults have long canine teeth (tusks) and are generally dark greyish brown. Wild boar males are generally solitary, but females and their young live in groups. They are shy and generally avoid humans. But they can be aggressive when cornered. Mothers can be particularly dangerous when protecting their young. Wild boar can run fast. They can swim too!
Boar babies: The female gives birth to a litter of up to 8 babies. She builds a nest of branches, leaves and grass to shelter her young. Infants are brown with white stripes along the body, resembling watermelons.
What does it eat? It eats mainly tubers, roots and fruits. It also snacks on small animals. It may dig for roots and worms, using its strong, flexible snout.

African Wild Dog (Lycaon pictus) photographed on the Kilimanjaro Safari in Africa at Disney's Animal Kingdom in Walt Disney World.
While most of the African Wild Dogs where resting as my Safari vehicle passed by, this guy decided to sit up. The pack is made up of all brothers so his siblings just ignored him.
Do you have photos of critters from Disney's Animal Kingdom? I invite you to post them to my DAK Life List flickr Group.

In the recent floods - Yea not the bush fires. Bill had to be air lifted to Bundy hospital by chopper. Three days later and residents of north Bundy are still unable to get in to see if their homes were flooded. Bill was to spend his time at the evacuation centre, but the hospital was also evacuated.
He claims it was great to get home to change his clothes.
Many thanks to all involved in the flood rescue ops in and around The Bundy area.

This is a pretty little plant. It is an evergreen perennial with an extensive rhizome system. The stems are trailing and root freely. The plant requires a lot of shade. The flowers are often concealed by the leaves.
The leaves are shiny not unlike poison oak, but their shape is different.

Members of the Wild Titans rugby team at the Hong Kong Rugby Tens, 2011. Hong Kong Football Club, Happy Valley, Hong Kong. After snapping pictures of the games, I kept getting a lot of sort of generic action shots, so i started taking pictures of the players, who seemed more interesting. I figured I'd leave the action shots to the many sports photographers on duty that day.
If you like these pictures, you might also want to see my pictures from the HK Beach 5s.
