Animal mad couple who live in the Sri Lankan jungle took in a tiny, shivering wild baby boar

An animal-mad couple who kept a wild boar baby who started off the size of a loaf of bread says she still sees the pet Labrador as her mother, despite now weighing 130lbs.

Jewellers Dora Wei, 28, and Nuwan Hemachandraand, 32, from Kandy, in the Sri Lankan jungle, returned home from a three-day camping trip in early September 2020 to a surprise delivery from their gardener.

In his arms was a tiny, shivering baby wild boar which had been left outside their house.

They believe the piglet, who they named Yezhu, to have been separated from her mother, and that she was only a few hours old.
