Found in the woods of Eurasia and Africa, the boar is one of the widest-ranging mammals in the world.

But one family has ventured too far and is terrorising residents of the small Luxembourg town of Martelange.

Bitter locals have complained the fearless boars have been destroying their gardens as they run through the town every day.

One filmed the beasts as they sprinted through the town centre.

It was only when a hunter shot at the cheeky animals that they panicked and headed back into the woods nearby.

The video has been shared by angry residents on Facebook who get irritated by the boars causing havoc in their village.

Marly Inbar wrote on Facebook: 'We have to build a wall to stop them. They entered my niece's house. What a plague!

Mariana Inbar added: 'A few of them absolutely destroyed my garden two weeks ago.'
