Boars were a type of pig (PROSE: Mad Dogs and Englishmen [+]Loading...["Mad Dogs and Englishmen (novel)"]) often caught for food on Earth. When she first met the Fifth Doctor and Peri Brown in Egypt in 1400 BC, Erimem invited them to sample some freshly-caught roast boar. As Peri was a vegetarian, she baulked at the thought of eating the boar. The Doctor advised her to pretend to have eaten it by moving it around her plate.

Boars had become extinct in England, but they were reintroduced in 1987. This occurred during a massive storm in Kent, when a farm that raised continental boars was damaged and the boars escaped. According to the Eighth Doctor, some of these boars came next-door to the Doctor's house, and he taught them to talk. They evolved into the intelligent Tusken race. Brewster was a sentient boar who managed a 21st century hotel on an asteroid; he said the Doctor's account of the repopulation was heresy, since he believed it was due to divine intervention. (PROSE: Mad Dogs and Englishmen [+]Loading...["Mad Dogs and Englishmen (novel)"])
