Would a female boar have tusks, not just small cutters. I have no clue.

At the risk of George calling me a smart arse. here is what goes.

Boer refers to the male hog when talking about domestic or feral hogs.

Eurpeon wild boar are classified as a breed in itself.

Boar are males with testicles.
Sows are females which have had piglets.
Guilt is a female which has not had piglest and may bot have been bred.

Bar is a neutered male, minus testicles.

Yes female swine of most subspecies do have tusk and whets.
Not as large as males of the breed, but yes they have them

I do know the gender names of hogs, sow and boar, just generalized all as the same. I'm sure the way the question was asked was the easiest way to get an answer. Thanks for the species lesson anyway for those who didn't know.
