In Belgium it was 200 hunters versus 170 wild boars and the animals won. Just one boar was killed. As one hunter put it, "The boars won. The hunters lost." The hunt was organized in the town of Postel since there was an explosive increase in the boar population. The animals damaged farm fields and woods and even caused traffic issues. The hunters tried to drive the boars together so marksmen could shoot them, but the plan didn't work. The town says it will have more hunts.
