Malaysia resident feeds wild boar family visiting during CNY, criticised by netizens<\/span><\/h2>\n

Humans weren’t the only ones going house visiting on Chinese New Year (CNY), as a wild boar family showed up outside a home in Malaysia on the fifth day of the festival.<\/p>\n

The human family obliged with gifts of angpao<\/em>, in the form of sliced bread for the boars to munch on.<\/p>\n

Netizen Eric Sua posted the video to Facebook on 21 Feb, showing about a dozen wild boars walking down the road of a residential area.<\/p>\n

The group appeared to consist of three adult boars and several juveniles.<\/p>\n

Some of the younger boars rushed towards a gated home but were briefly startled by a barking dog inside the compound.<\/p>\n

Moments later, a man from inside the house began throwing slices of bread over the gate towards the animals.<\/p>\n

The boars quickly scrambled to eat the bread off the ground, jostling one another as more slices were tossed out.<\/p>\n

“Wow, they’re so tame already,” an unknown woman could be heard from behind the camera, jokingly calling them “pets”.<\/p>\n

The wild boar family seemed to ask for more, and the resident obliged.<\/p>\n

“Every day this time, they come,” a male speaker claimed, saying the boars knew the resident.<\/p>\n

Zooming out, the footage showed other members of the human family tossing more bread out for the wild boars.<\/p>\n

Others, however, criticised the act of feeding wild boars, warning of potential hygiene and safety risks.<\/p>\n

One commenter cautioned that wild boars could leave droppings near homes, which may pose health concerns, especially for children and the elderly.<\/p>\n

\n

Translation: It’s best not to feed them. Wild boars will leave droppings near your house and spread germs through the air. People with strong immune systems will be fine, but children and the elderly will fall sick easily.<\/em>
