Pigs. Nz might seem to have no dangerous animals, insects and sea life, but we do have a lot of wild introduced pigs. They are more than capable of killing and many hunters come off second best even if equipped with a rifle.

Friend of a friend is in a wheelchair now because of a hunting accident involving wild pigs.

And yet a popular activity seems to be "pig sticking."

Which broadly speaking, involves using dogs to find and hold a boar so you can jump in and stab it to death.

Some people are crazy wild!
