BOAR HOLE
In order to assist with training vets and pig farmers, we were commissioned by a global pharmaceutical company to modify a large number of model boars.
A specific area was identified where an injection had to be administered. Once the fluid was injected, another alteration was made to "drain" the boar.
On completion of the modifications to support this purpose, the boars were then shipped all over the world.
The company found this model an "invaluable training aid", and were extremely satisfied with the end result. So much so, that another herd of pigs had to undergo the same transformation.
Dimensions of the Boar are :
Length : 165cm
Width : 38cm
Height : 75cm
