Boar shot dead

A wild boar, weighing more than 100 kilograms, was shot dead after killing a courser on September 18 in Yun county, Central China's Hubei province, Chutian Metropolis Daily reported. Due to rise in Han river's water level and subsequent flooding of reeds, the boar left its habitat and wandered into a middle school in the county. Six hunters and five coursers were sent to the scene after people alerted police. The boar bit one courser to death before being shot dead by a hunter.
