What geographical areas comprised the vast native range of the wild boar species (*Sus scrofa*) before widespread introduction?

Answer

Eurasia and North Africa

The wild boar (*Sus scrofa*) possesses one of the largest historical distributions among large mammals due to its inherent adaptability. Its ancestral range, where it exists as the original European wild boar stock, is immensely broad. This native distribution stretches across the large landmass of Eurasia, covering diverse climates and landscapes. Furthermore, its native range also extends geographically into North Africa. This inherent resilience in varied environments set the stage for its later success as an introduced, feral population on other continents.
