‘GROUNDBREAKERS – The Return of The Boar’, an Illustrated Talk by CHANTAL LYONS, Thursday 18 September, 7.30pm

Upstairs at The George The George, Newnham on Severn

Seven hundred years ago they were hunted to the brink of extinction. Now wild boar are back in the Forest of Dean and elsewhere in the UK. But are they a threat to people, property and landscape, or should we be actively encouraging and protecting them?
For years, Chantal Lyons has immersed herself in the world of the boar and those who live alongside them. In this fascinating talk, she shares her experiences and explores the issues raised by the presence of these idiosyncratic, highly intelligent creatures in our midst.
