About:

A just born boar piglet is resting on a podium. The podium and the boar are both made out of candle wax.

The boar was eradicated in Sweden but over the last three decades or so it has been re-introduced by man into the Swedish fauna. This, for many, unwanted species has become a great source of controversy in Sweden.
