75% of players answered correctly.

THE CORRECT ANSWER: The wild boar piglet

This young wild boar is immediately recognized by its striped livery, made up of light and dark horizontal bands. This natural camouflage is essential for its survival in the undergrowth, because it makes it almost invisible to the eyes of predators when it remains motionless. Thewild boar piglet lives in a troop called a “company”, led by an experienced sow (female wild boar).Until the age of six months, it retains its characteristic stripes before its coat turns red, at which stage it is then called "red beast". Very dependent on its mother for protection and learning how to find food, the wild boar quickly learns to search the ground with its tip to uncover roots, acorns and small invertebrates.Its growth is rapid, but it remains vulnerable to wolves or foxes during its first weeks of life in the forest.
