Wild boar kills woman, 76, by tossing her into the air

A wild boar brutally mauled a 76-year-old woman to death at her home.

The animal entered the victim’s property after being chased there by hunting dogs.

The horror attack was captured on CCTV.

The boar walked through the property as the victim went outside to investigate the loud barking noises.

The animal turns around and heads towards the OAP, encountering her outside her patio door.

The boar charges at the elderly woman, sending her flying through the air.

She appears to hit her head hard on the concrete several times as the wild animal carries out a ‘kill shake’.

Three hunting dogs bark at the boar as it continues to maul the victim with its sharp fangs.

The wild animal snarls at two dogs, sending them running, before continuing to attack the OAP.

It eventually leaves the woman lying on the ground in a pool of blood with her clothes partially removed.

The shocking scenes were filmed in Langao County near Ankang City in China on Sunday (Nov 24) morning.

According to reports, wild boars had been damaging crops in the area so several hunters went to the mountains to deal with them.

Their hunting dogs chased the killer boar into the victim’s village where it entered her property, as reported by Need To Know.

Her family has reportedly reached a settlement agreement with the hunting team.

In response to the woman’s death, the local authorities announced increased efforts to deal with the growing population of wild boars in the area.

Boars are fast, strong, and aggressive animals that will usually attack if they feel threatened or are caring for their young.

Experts recommend darting up a tree or climbing to a lofty position that the wild boar cannot reach.

If it’s not possible to avoid an attack, locals are recommended to cover their head, neck, and torso to minimise the harm.
