On the penultimate day of the year occurred in the hunting preserve cell Weissenberg in Zurich Tösstal to an almost historical event that one can safely describe as a "mess". For the first time since the early fifties of the 20th Century could again be hunted wild boar - and this at once or in duplicate! In order for skeptics are now numerous reported sightings confirmed in recent years: the wild boar are also in Tösstal home again, at least as a wild passing through!
Three tenants of the hunting party and honorary game wardens Hans Hächler had agreed to a small Rehtrieb at year end to meet the launch requirements. Beech grove in the area was a small wild boar rotting - a sow and three piglets scared -. Shooting tenant Heinz Steger could shoot in quick succession two of the three young huntsman, and with good shots. The leading Bache was properly protected. The pups weighed 32.2 and 29.8 pounds - impressive weights that can be close to good nutritional status, which met the boar in the woods Tösstaler. It goes without saying that the victories were celebrated in due hangout hunting society, the "Linde" to Langenhard. An encouraging financial statements for the hunters - and a rare event for the Tösstal Hans Hächler believe to remember that the last wild boar in cell-firing took place in 1953!
