Boars are large, tusked mammals that lived during the ice age into the present day.
Traits[]
Coated in bristly fur, boars are four-legged, hoofed mammals with flat-ended sensitive snouts used for finding food. Boars sport a set of pointed horns, which, during the ice ages, were much more numerous, and have small eyes with short, broad ears and short, thin tails with a small quantity of short, bristly hair at the end. Thickly-built, boars are strong, fast-moving mammals that charge any threats or challenges.
History[]
Among the animals impacted by the continental drifts during the ice ages, in which the continents began to split and divide, were boars. One, a male named Dobson, was cast out to sea and rescued by the piratical ape Gutt, being compelled to be on his crew of piratical animals aboard Gutt's iceberg ship.

Behind the Scenes[]
True boars do not have as many tusks as was shown in the film Ice Age: Continental Drift.
Because of the time period that the fourth film is set in it could be possible that the boar is the movie is Kubanochoerus. Despite boar not having as many tusks as the boar in the film pigs like Metridiochoerus and Kubanochoerus have many tusks just like the boar in the movie.
