Dang... too bad for that hunter.
Lesson for us all. If in doubt, or there is any possibility of the game not being dead, shoot again!
Even the most expensive bullet costs less then a hospital bill---- or a funeral.

He learned a valuable lesson ... Oops too late.
A good lesson for others at least.

Sometimes, they’ll seemingly play dead until the hunter gets within range. Other times, they’ll sneak away and circle around. This allows them to flank the hunter and charge from behind.
WOW!!! They are just like black death buffalo?!!!!

As a result, European wild boars are smaller than their American counterparts but are no less dangerous.
Wow! Feral pigs are bigger than true wild boar? Gotta let them out of their grain fed yards earlier!

Very unfortunate hunter, bad luck to have femoral artery severed and no-one nearby with first-aid knowledge to get onto the pressure-point in the groin, or strap him up.
Had to laugh at this though...

Wild boars are...incredibly intelligent. In fact, some studies show that they are one of the most intelligent animals on the planet.
Must be a lot of pissed-off dolphins to hear that! 
Obviously posted by someone who's never seen, kept, or hunted one. Sure, they're not dumb like sheep, and can even be trained to do some remarkable stuff, but grunting and rolling in mud is not exactly a beacon of enlightenment.

Marrakai In the case of a wild boar, it might be justified to shift from "beacon of enlightenment" you mentioned to "bacon of enlightenment".  Louis
