Wild Boars in Kobe: A Common Sight

I've heard that people in Kobe are not surprised to see wild boars. The other day, I took my child to a park. The park is located on the side of a residential area that borders the mountains, making it almost part of the mountain.

While watching a river near the park with my child, my son suddenly exclaimed, "Look, there's a wild boar!" I couldn't spot it, but I did hear the sound of something walking.

Kobe has many rivers flowing from the mountains to the sea. It seems that wild boars travel along these rivers, coming down from the mountains to the city. It's not uncommon for wild boars to appear in the city.

Therefore, when told that people in Kobe are not surprised to see wild boars, it makes sense. Many people I know have seen wild boars. Some even encounter them while walking their dogs by the riverside.

When I asked if they were surprised, they answered, "Of course we were surprised." No one I asked said they weren't surprised. It seems the idea that people in Kobe are not surprised to see wild boars is somewhat exaggerated.
