I’m not waving away your point, I’m saying your point isn’t a good one to consider in the context of the discussion about eco-systems. The problems with boars in NO way pales to the problems that bears and wolves cause. In an unbalanced eco-system boars (or deer or elk) cause massive problems to the whole system, eating certain plants to local extinction, destroying crops, boars themselves are extremely dangerous to people, large populations carry and mutate diseases that easily transfer to both human and livestock populations, etc... Simply put people 1000 years ago didn’t understand science or the larger world around them in th way we do. They weren’t stupid and they lived in the natural world the most of us don’t now but that knowledge only goes so far. Making modern eco-systems decisions based on the “wisdom” of 1000 years ago is a horrible idea and the issues that removing boars natural predators cause are in fact much MUCH larger than co-existing with those predators.
