LEE COUNTY, Fla. (Gray News) \u2013 A family in Florida was in for a surprise when a wild boar came crashing through their back door and into their living room.<\/p>\n

Bodycam video<\/a> from the Lee County Sheriff\u2019s Office shows deputies responding to a call about the wild animal.<\/p>\n

The sheriff\u2019s office called it a \u201cboarglary\u201d and said the animal went \u201chog-wild.\u201d<\/p>\n

Video shows the glass smashed in from the family\u2019s sliding door and the boar standing in the living room.<\/p>\n

The deputy can be heard estimating the animal is at least 300 pounds.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s a big, mean, feral animal,\u201d one family member says.<\/p>\n

Then, the boar is seen darting back outside, nearly knocking over the deputy in the process.<\/p>\n

But then, the animal comes back for more. In the yard, the boar is seen charging at the deputy multiple times until it is finally lassoed.<\/p>\n

Deputies were able to move the animal back into the woods \u201cwhere he belongs,\u201d they said.<\/p>\n
