Chat with people who had recently encountered wild boars (sangliers) ended with almost unanimous "they're so big!" The dissenter was me so I said nowt.
First time I saw a #sanglier I thought it must be some related animal because it didn't look much like the enormous beasts depicted in English history, subdued by several people with pointy weapons.
I may have been influenced by living in rural Suffolk. The Large White, now that's a big pig. Boars weigh over 350kg: more than two sangliers.
