Wild boar

While we're separating wild/domestic animals like ocelots and cats, how about a wild boar? 

> Basically a smaller mean-looking pig
> Neutral, peaceful but retaliates
> They dig a burrow when first spawned, and remember this location like turtles.
> Wolves are normally not afraid of them, but boars will attempt to scare them off when their space is being invaded. 
> When bred, they have a chance of making another boar or a domestic pig. 
> Love mushrooms

    Intresting...I always thought there should be Boar in Minecraft instead of pigs. Or just as a wild variant of them.

    When you play a music disk near them, they calm down and start walking off and you can get the advancement/achievement: Hakuna Matata!

    Maybe neutral but during nighttime they attack unless you give them mutton, goats meat, or beef.

    Strongly agree, there should be wild boars/pigs, they would be neutral during the day and hostile at night, passive on peaceful. They would attack if you hurt them, and would be neutralized at night by feeding them mutton, or goat meat. They would sound similar to hoglins instead of regular pigs. Boars could be bred and piglets would be passive, until they grow up. 

    The boar would be brown in color, have small tusks like those on piglins, and should be thinner and taller. Here is an example photo of what one could be modeled similar to.

    As in real life, wild boar meat is more tender than pork from domestic pigs, it should give you 4 food points raw or 10 food points cooked, and also give 25% more saturation than regular porkchops.

    I was thinking it could be a retuxtured Hoglin for the overworld.

    Lower spawn rate for wild ones-they should be a boss. Wild boars are extremely dangerous. Make the current pigs spawn in villages only.

    They should be bigger than pigs, not smaller. They should also drop leather and pork. (And maybe even tusks?)

    Pero tengo una duda poner un jabalí a minecraft sería como repetir mods puesto a que el hoglin ya de plano se parece a un jabalí
    Pero no me quita las ganas de ver a un jabalí en minecraft

    I think if there's a neutral pigmen and hostile pigmen like how they're wild boars and domesticated pigs.
    in real life pigs have a stealth Gene that allows them to revert to a wild state so what if, the nice domesticated pigman naturally live in village groups and when they get isolated from other Pigmen they turn feral, like wild boars or even they turn into the piglins that live in the nether.
    maybe when they turn into wild boars they get zombified in the overall world and they need to stay in the nether.
    which explains why zombified piglins have hoarding mob mentality when even just one is attacked, and they just retained that from life as a pigmen. even the wild boar men have hoarding mob behavior.
